The lady Superstar of Mollywood, one of the greatest actress Malayalam cinema has ever seen, Manju Warrier has been selected as the brand ambassador for the Cinema for women category in the All Lights India International Film Festival. Cinema for women is one among the many categories included in the film festival which will begin at Cinepolis Centre Square Mall in Kochi on November 15 and will end on November 21.
The category Cinema for women will have films which shows women centric themes and films based on female characters and their life. Films will be handpicked from all regional languages from India. Manju Warrier has been chosen as the brand ambassador because she is the most influential actress in Kerala who alone can carry a film on her shoulder even without the support of a male lead star.
Her comeback film to Malayalam cinema after 14 years was also a women centric film How old are you conceived by Rosshan Andrrews. It was a super success as well. She has made all films of her comeback trail a hit and last one was with the Legend Mohanlal titled as Ennum Eppozhum. So Manju Warrier got unanimously chosen as the face to represent cinema for women category as there is nobody better than her in all sense.
They had already roped in Mohanlal and Kamal Haasan, the greatest actors from Indian film Industry to represent Malayalam cinema and Tamil cinema respectively. Venkitesh is there for Telugu cinema and popular actress Nikki Galrani will be the one who represent the category of cinema for children.
