A mass entertainer from Mohanlal-Shaji Kailas-Renji Panicker team on it’s way
We had recently reported that Mohanlal will be teaming up with director Shaji Kailas for a movie written by Renji Panicker. Antony Perumbavoor of Aashirvad Cinemas made this news official recently during the Lucifer team’s press meet.
Aashirvad Cinemas will be funding five movies in the next two years and one among them will be a Mohanlal- Shaji Kailas- Renji Panicker movie.
The track record of Mohanlal- Shaji Kailas team is an enviable one that comprises of some mega blockbusters like Narasimham, Aaram Thamburan and Baba Kalyani. Renji Panicker and Shaji Kailas have also delivered some big blockbusters during the 90s like The King, Commissioner, Ekalavyan etc. This will be the first time the duo will be working on a Mohanlal starrer and that has certainly heightened the expectations.
We hear that the upcoming movie will be a high voltage mass entertainer. It will be a typical Shaji Kailas movie with prominence to action and Renji Panicker’s fiery punch dialogues will be another thing to look forward in this movie.
The gargantuan success of Pulimurugan has proved that properly fleshed out mass entertainers are still viable in Mollywood. And with Mohanlal in the scheme of things, most probably the trio’s upcoming movie will be a huge success. The actor is in such a rich form that even his mediocre movies will have a minimum success guarantee.
Shaji Kailas is riding on the back a string of failures. One of the leading directors in the 90s, Shaji Kailas has now pinned all his hopes on the Mohanlal starrer. Renji Panicker meanwhile also took a break from scripting and is currently focusing on his acting. The celebrated writer will be itching to get back to his favorite zone and script a powerful mass entertainer.
Fingers crossed for a complete mass entertainer that can set the cash registers ringing like never before. It is heard that the movie will go floors only by next year after Mohanlal wraps up his prior commitments.
