Mammootty himself to produce his film with Kettyolaanu Ente Malaakha director Nissam Basheer

We had earlier reported about ‘Kettyolaanu Ente Malaakha’ director Nissam Basheer holding talks with Mammootty for his next. It seems like the project is finally materialising. The latest we hear is that the megastar himself will be producing the film.

Nissam Basheer’s directorial debut ‘Kettyolaanu Ente Malakha’ was a commercially successful film that dealt with the highly relevant theme of marital rape. Though the film had some polarising views, it was well received by the majority. It was also selected in the Indian Panorama section at the 51st Indian Film Festival, Goa.

Needless to say, expectations will be high on Nissam’s next with Mammootty. It will be very interesting to see what genre the young filmmaker attempts to make with Mammootty. The film is reportedly scripted by Sameer Abdul, who has earlier penned the Asif Ali starrers ‘Ibilis’ and ‘Adventures of Omanakuttan’.

If things turn out as per plans, shoot is expected to begin by this year-end or early next year.
