Unni Mukundan and Noorin Shereef to team up for Chocolate: Retold

We had earlier reported about Unni Mukundan starring in a movie titled ‘Chocolate: Retold’. As the title suggests, it will be a retelling of the
2007-released Prithviraj starrer ‘Chocolate’. Writer-director Sethu, who scripted the original film with Sachi, is helming this one independently. Shoot for the movie is scheduled to commence in July.

‘Chocolate: Retold’ will have Unni Mukundan as Abhimanyu, who lands in a women’s college of over 3000 girl students. Noorin Shereef has been signed as the female lead. Though ‘Oru Adaar Love’ ended up as a failure, Noorin’s performance was noted and critics rated her as a promising talent. This upcoming movie has her playing a college student, a character that’s reminiscent of the one played by Roma in ‘Chocolate’.

Unni Mukundan meanwhile is busy shooting for ‘Maamaankam’. The period film starring Mammootty in the lead has Unni in a prominent role as a warrior. The actor has been putting in a lot of efforts to build a chiselled physique as his character demands it. He has also signed a new film in Malayalam and another one in Tamil.
