The new talk of Mollywood is Pratap Pothen directing a film with Dulquer Salmaan in the lead. And this wonderful news is shared by Pratap Pothen himself in his official Facebook account today. In the long detailed post, Pratap Pothen conveys about his days and dreams he has to fulfill in his future. Along with this post, he also posted a photo with Dulquer Salmaan. In the post he also confirms that the project will have talented people joining hands in various sections like Anjali Menon, Rajeev Menon etc. Anjali Menon will be writing the script for the film and Rajeev Menon will do the Cinematography. Pratap Pothen also confirms that the movie will be produced by Global United Media.
In the post Pratap Pothen shares his 80’s where he saw Mammootty, who was then an upcoming actor and following the post he also confirms that he knew that Mammootty will be going places etc and that’s what exactly happened. He also shares his experience as a director. Towards the end he also says that after his directorial venture with Dulquer Salmaan he is planning to do a bio-pic with Mammootty which will fulfill his dream. In this Facebook post he also confirms that he selected Dulquer for the role not because of Mammootty but because of Dulquer’s performance in Usthad Hotel and Ok Kanmani. And he ends the post by thanking everyone who is joining him in this venture.
As a director, Pratap Pothen has directed Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu films starting with the Tamil movie Meendum Oru Kaathal Kathai. He did three Malayalam movies which were Hruthubhetham, Daisy and Yathramozhi. These movies were great movies which saw performances of artists like Thilakan, Kamal Haasan, Shivaji Ganesan and Mohanlal respectively. After a long break now Pratap is back into his director role, hope this movie would bring out some splendid piece of art that people like Anjali Menon, Rajiv Menon and Dulquer is joining Pratap Pothen to make it look outstanding on the silver screen.
Prathap Pothen’s previous directorial venture was in 1995, Yathramozhi. So just like Pratap Pothen said in his post, hope you enjoy making the film and fly high by marking a place again in Mollywood as a director. All the best wishes to this upcoming flick. Stay tuned for more updates about the movie..
