Dulquer Salmaan starrer film Charlie opened well in Kerala Box office. This Martin Prakatt directorial film was written by him along with noted writer Unni R. One of the highlight of the film is the climax part of the film which had Thrissur Pooram in the backdrop. Everybody knows the beauty and the thrill or may be the craziness that surrounds Thrissur Pooram. To recreate that magic on silver screen is a hard task and Martin Prakatt had done it successfully.

Actually the Charli shooting had begun by shooting the Thrissur Pooram for the climax sequence. Martin Prakkat had not decided about the climax part or how they will conceive it till the shoot starts. Then he suddenly decided that they will shoot the climax this way with all the thrill surrounding the Thrissur Pooram. Each day a minimum of 500 junior artist was present in the shooting set and they had spent a lot of money for the climax part itself for its perfection. It can be seen in the film as well because the perfection it gave to the film was just superb. There was a lot of hard work behind all this and the team is now very happy that all that paid off at the end.

The vision of Unni R and Martin Prakatt made it possible and the support by the production team is fabulous as well. It is for the first time that Thrissur pooram is shot for the climax of a Malayalam film. They started all from there. The film has been doing good at box office even though getting mixed reviews. The different manner in which they told the story is attracting a section of the audience and the same may be reason for the disliking of some.

Some expected a mass entertainer as they went disappointed from the theaters. But the ones who loves feel good entertainers loving it and will love it as well. Anyway the weekdays are coming which will actually decide its fate at box office and as of now the flick has been doing good.
