Mohanlal finishes his portions for Kayamkulam Kochunni

As we already know, Mohanlal is playing the role of Ithikkara Pakki in the Nivin Pauly starrer Kayamkulam Kochunni. Roshan Andrews is directing this movie and the National award winning writer duo Bobby and Sanjay have scripted it. Last day, the director took to his social media to inform that Mohanlal has finished his portions for the movie. Roshan also uploaded a stunning still of Mohanlal as Ithikkara Pakki.

Mohanlal’s new avatar with his trimmed physique and styling instantly reminds one of a Gladiator or Maximus. Kayamkulam Kochunni promises to be an absolute treat for his fans. The movie is based on the life of legendary highwayman Kochunni, who was active in 19th century in the Travancore region. Nivin Pauly plays Kochunni’s role in the movie.

As per the makers, Mohanlal as Ithikara Pakki makes his appearance at a very crucial juncture in the story and has around 40 minutes screen time. Ithikara Pakki is known to be the first legendary Robin Hood of Kerala; he and Kochunni were contemporaries. It was Pakki who started the unique style of robbing, which was later continued by Kochunni. Combination scenes between Mohanlal and Nivin Pauly would be the movie’s major highlight.

Kayamkulam Kochunni also stars Priya Anand, Sunny Wayne, Babu Antony and Kannada actress Priyanka Thimmesh. The team will soon be heading to Sri Lanka for the final schedule. Gokulam Gopalan of Sri Gokulam Films is producing this big budget movie.
