Powerstar with Babu Antony will be a true-blue mass thriller: Omar Lulu

It was in June last year that Omar Lulu had announced a new project titled ‘Powerstar’ with Babu Antony. However, there has been no further updates about it since then. Omar also went ahead with another project titled ‘Dhamaka’. There were talks in social medias about ‘Powerstar’ getting shelved. However, the director has informed that the project is very much on and is most likely to be his next. According to him, it will be an out and out mass thriller and if all goes well, shoot will begin early next year.

Babu Antony is unarguably one of the biggest action heroes that Malayalam cinema has ever seen. There was a time in the 90s when his action flicks regularly gave tough competition to the superstar films. It will be really interesting to see how Omar Lulu presents the veteran in a full fledged mass flick.

Babu Antony was last seen in Malayalam in ‘Kayamkulam Kochunni’. He had recently played a crucial role in the Akshay Kumar starrer ‘Laxxmi Bomb’, which is the remake of Kanchana. Babu Antony also made his Hollywood debut recently with an action film titled ‘Bullets, Blades and Blood’.
