Superstar to play the role of E Sreedharan in Rima Kallingal’s Arabikkadalinte Rani- The Metro Woman

Last day we told you that a Malayalam movie is being made on the backdrop of Kerala’s dream project- Kochi metro. The movie titled as Arabikkadalinte Rani- The Metro Woman stars Rima Kallingal as the protagonist.

One of the movie’s pivotal characters is E Madhavan, which is based on the ‘Metro Man’ E Sreedharan. Reportedly, a superstar has been approached to play this role. E Sreedharan is a widely revered personality among the masses and hence it demands a leading actor who can fill in the big shoes. The makers are tight lipped about who will be playing this role and that has obviously piqued the curiosity of the audience.

Arabikkadalinte Rani- The Metro Woman is directed by M Padmakumar and scriptwriter Suresh Babu. The latter has also co-written the movie along with MU Pradeep. The movie is about a woman’s attempts to meet her role model E Madhavan, the man who spearheaded the ambitious metro project. Rima Kallingal is playing the protagonist’s role of PK Lalitha, a sales girl who hails from Tripunithura.

Anoop Menon, Alencier Ley Lopez,
Santhosh Keezhattoor, Srinda Arhaan, Arun Narayan and Sheelu Abraham are also part of the cast. Veteran cinematographer Madhu Neelakandan has been roped in to crank the camera. Vinod Sukumaran will be editing the movie. VG Films International is producing this movie.
