Madura Raja shoot wrapped up

After working together for over six months, the team of Madura Raja called it a wrap last day. The movie directed by Vysakh has megastar Mammootty reprising his character from the 2010 blockbuster film, ‘Pokkiri Raja’. Udhayakrishna, who wrote the original along with Sibi K Thomas, has scripted this one independently. Mammootty is back as the Madurai based lovable don who speaks in a funny English accent. The character has a big following among the kids.

‘Madura Raja’ is getting ready amidst massive expectations as Vysakh-Udhayakrishna team’s last film ‘Pulimurugan’ emerged as a record breaking blockbuster. The duo will be hoping to repeat the success this time as well. Almost the same technical team from ‘Pulimurugan’ has been retained in ‘Madura Raja’ as well, which includes cinematographer Shaji Kumar, music director Gopi Sunder, action choreographer Peter Hein and editor Johnkutty.

‘Madura Raja’ also has an elaborate star cast comprising of three female leads in Shamna Kasim, Anna Reshma and Mahima Nambiar. Sunny Leone has also performed a special dance number in the movie along with Mammootty. Tamil actor Jai is making his Malayalam debut by playing a prominent role in the movie. Jagapathi Babu will be seen as the villain.

‘Madura Raja’ is produced by Nelson Ipe. The movie is slated for a grand Vishu release in April.
