We have earlier reported that Megastar Mammootty will do a Tamil film this year and it will be directed by director Ram who shot to fame with his acclaimed flick named Thanga Meenkal. As per the latest updates from the team behind the film, the shoot of the flick will start on January 6 at Kodaikkanal. The film is titled as Peranbu and popular south Indian heroine Anjali will play the female lead in this flick opposite Mammootty. Popular music director Yuvan Shankar Raja will tune the music for this film and the other important role in the film to be played by child artist Sadhana.
Mammootty had acted in many Tamil films in his illustrious career and the most popular among them are 1991 Mani Ratnam directorial film Thalapathy in which Super Star Rajinikanth and Mammootty played the lead roles, then a film named Azhakan, Kandu Kondein Kandu Kondein, Makkal Aatchi etc. There are reports came not so long ago that Mammootty may do a Tamil film with Ilaya Thalapathy Vijay and it will be directed by Mohan Raja. But that will only be a 2017 or 2018 project even if the news is true as it is planning as the 61st or 62nd film of Vijay.
Vijay is now doing only his 59th film directed by Atlee titled Theri. His 60th film is said to be directing by Bharathan who had earlier directed Azhakiya Tamil Magan with Vijay in the lead. The Mammootty- Vijay combination will be superb if it happens as Vijay’s combination film with Mohanlal named Jilla was a super success in 2014.
The heroine of the Mammootty-Ram film Anjali become popular through the Tamil film named Angaditheru and later she done some notable films like Engeyum Eppothum in Tamil. She acted in a Malayalam film as well named Payyans starring Jayasurya in the lead. But that was not a success critically and commercially. She had also played a role in the blockbuster Ajith film named Mankatha as well. She had done some item numbers as well in Tamil.
