Will Honey Bee 2’s poor performance affect Honey Bee 2.5? Here’s what Lal had to say!
Honey Bee 2.5 is a new attempt in Malayalam cinema. The movie’s plot happens in the location of another movie- Honey Bee 2: Celebrations. Asif Ali’s younger brother Askar Ali is making his entry to cinema through Honeybee 2.5. Maheshinte Prathikaram fame Lijomol Jose is playing the female lead.
Actor/filmmaker Lal has scripted and produced this movie. Lal is very confident about the movie and has assured that it will be a new experience for the Malayali audience. However, he admit that Honey Bee 2’s poor performance has affected the release of Honey Bee 2.5.
Apparently, Lal had planned to release the movie much earlier but the failure of Honey Bee 2 pulled him back a bit. They are now planning to promote the venture widely before releasing it.
Honey Bee 2.5, directed by debutant Shyju Anthikad, happens in the sets of Honey Bee 2. It is about an aspiring actor who lands up in the sets of Honey Bee. Artists performing in the latter will be seen in the background of this movie.
Asif Ali, Bhavana, Sreenath Bhasi, Balu Varghese, Baburaj, Sreenivasan, Lena and many others who were part of Honey Bee 2 will be seen in Honey Bee 2.5 also. These actors had to perform without any rehearsals and retakes. Live sync sound is also used in the Askar Ali starrer. Both the movies were filmed simultaneously.
Honey Bee 2.5 will be a very realistic take on the events happening in a cinema set. It is an one of a kind attempt in Mollywood. The makers are planning to release the movie by the end of July.
