I feel lucky to share screen space with Mammukka in Parole: Iniya

Mammootty’s highly anticipated movie Parole is hitting screens today (April 6). The movie directed by debutant Sharrath Sandith is touted to be an intense family drama. Mammootty is playing the role of ‘sakhav’ Alex while Iniya plays his wife Annie and Miya George essays the role of his sister.

In a recent interview, Iniya opened up about her experience working in Parole and her admiration for Mammootty. Though Iniya has acted in Mammootty’s Puthan Panam last year, they did not have any combination scenes in it. But Parole has her in a solid role that offers her good scope for performance.

Iniya’s character Annie is a typical ‘achayathi’ hailing from a rural area. In order to get the looks of a middle aged mother, Iniya put on a few kilos prior to the commencement of shoot. She chose to act in Parole after being impressed with her character and the storyline. About working with Mammootty, she feels lucky to share screen space with him. Mammootty also helped her with dialogue delivery and improvisation during the shoot.

Parole is scripted by Ajith Poojappura, who was a jailer in real life. He scripted the movie based on some real life incidents, which has piqued a lot of curiosity among the audience. The movie has a huge set of supporting actors like ‘Baahubali’ fame Prabhakar, Siddique, Suraj Venjaramoodu, Krishna Kumar, Irshad, Sijoy Varghese, Sohan Seenulal, Lalu Alex, Sudheer Karamana, Alencier Ley Lopez and Muthumani.

The movie is being produced by Antony D’Cruz Entertainment and Century Films is releasing it in Kerala.
