Dulquer Salmaan’s heroine will be next seen with Mammootty!!

We had already reported about Mammootty playing the lead in an upcoming movie titled as Uncle. The film is written by actor-turned-filmmaker Joy Mathew. Gireesh Damodar, a former associate of Ranjith and M Padmakumar, is making his directorial debut with Uncle.

Joy Mathew has earlier written and directed the critically and commercially acclaimed Shutter. The movie was screened at several international film festivals and was also remade in six Indian languages. It showcased the moral hypocrisies in Kerala’s patriarchal society.

Uncle also lies on similar lines to Shutter and will discuss about a very relevant socially issue. It is centered around a 17-year-old girl and her dad’s friend, whom she fondly calls uncle. Mammootty is playing the titular role. The social and political milieu of Kerala is of much importance in the movie. It is about an unusual situation a family is made to face. Mammootty will be seen in a different role altogether.

Karthika Muraleedharan has been roped in to play a prominent role in the movie. Karthika made her debut earlier this year by playing the female lead in Dulquer Salmaan’s Comrade In America (CIA). The Mumbai born actress is lucky to share screen space with the most celebrated father-son duo of Mollywood in her first two movies itslef.

Uncle also stars Joy Mathew, Asha Sharath, Vinay Forrt, Suresh Krishna, Kailash, Sheela, Muthumani and others in supporting roles. Veteran Azhagappan will be cranking the camera and Bijibal will handle the music department.

Vijay to start shooting for his next with AR Murugadoss from January

It is already known that Vijay’s next (Vijay 62) after the ongoing Mersal will be with ace filmmaker AR Murugadoss. This will be his third film with the director after the blockbusters Thuppakki and Kaththi, both of which entered the elite 100 crore club. It is learnt that the makers are planning to start shoot by January next year.

In a recent interview, AR Murugadoss had revealed that the blockbuster duo’s next outing will be an unusual project. He assured that he will be showing an unseen side of Vijay in this film. The director is currently busy with the final patch up and promotional works of the Mahesh Babu starrer Spyder, slated to hit screens on September 27. He will start working on Vijay’s film only after the release of Spyder.

AR Murugadoss is one filmmaker who knows how to utilize the acting potential and star power of Vijay. Almost all his movies have been money spinners that have also found critical acclaim. So the expectations are obviously on the higher side when the duo are teaming up for the third time.

Their last production was the all time blockbuster Enthiran, released back in 2010. Young sensation Anirudh Ravichander is rumoured be to composing for Vijay 62.

Remembering a touching story told…. Ennu Ninte Moideen etched deep in our consciousness. Released same day two years ago….

Prithviraj is an encyclopedia of cinema: Rahul Madhav

Prithviraj’s latest release Adam Joan is doing pretty good business across all the release centres. The movie directed by Jinu Abraham is an emotional dark thriller, something very rarely explored in the grounds of Malayalam cinema. Prithviraj plays the titular role in this movie which also stars Rahul Madhav, Naren, Bhavana and Lena in prominent roles.

Adam Joan is Rahul Madhav’s second film with Prithviraj after Memories. Incidentally, Rahul has played Prithvi’s younger brother in both these movies. In a recent interview, Rahul was all praise for his co-star Prithviraj. He narrated an interesting incident that happening during the shoot. Since 90% of the portions of the movie was shot in Scotland, some foreign actors were also part of the cast.

A couple of foreign actors were playing policemen in the movie. While shooting for their scenes, Prithviraj intervened and corrected their mistakes in dialogue delivery and grammatical errors, taking the whole team by surprise. Rahul calls Prithviraj as an ‘encyclopedia of cinema‘. Apparently, the youngster is bowled over by Prithvi’s professionalism and his sound technical knowledge.

Adam Joan has won appreciation from the critics for it’s bold theme and a commendable effort by the team to try something unique. Prithviraj has delivered a wonderful performance while portraying a very emotional role. The line here was extremely thin as even an inch forward would have gone completely melodramatic. With the positive word of mouth, the movie is expected to do good business in the coming weeks also.

Adam Joan is produced jointly by Brijeesh Mohamed, Josemon Simon and Nihal. Renji Panicker is presenting this movie under his banner Renji Panicker Entertainment.

Official: Here’s the star-studded cast of Mani Ratnam’s next!

For the last few months, we have seen as a whole lot of speculations about the cast of ace filmmaker Mani Ratnam’s next movie. Putting an end to all loose talks, the makers have finally released a press statement announcing the cast and crew of this much talked about movie.

Apparently, Mani Ratnam has pulled off one of the biggest casting coup of recent times by roping in a plethora of actors for this movie. Arvind Swamy, Vijay Sethupathi, Fahadh Faasil, Simbu, Jyothika and Aishwarya Rajesh will be playing the lead roles in this yet-to-be titled movie.

The legendary filmmaker has also brought on board his regular set of technicians – composer AR Rahman, cinematographer Santhosh Sivan and editor Sreekar Prasad. This is obviously a mega budget movie and Mani Ratnam’s Madras Talkies is funding it. Shoot for the movie will bd commencing by January next year.

Aishwarya Rajesh, who is playing one of the female leads, in a recent interview said that it will be a thriller, a completely different one from Mani Ratnam’s earlier films. There is still no official information about this upcoming movie’s genre.

Mani Ratnam’s last release was Kaatru Veliyidai, an intense love story starring Karthi and Aditi Rao Hydari in the lead roles. Released amidst high expectations, the movie ended up as a disappointing affair at the box office. So, the director will be itching to bounce back to winning ways. By roping in such a stellar cast, the master has once again shown that he still has some tricks up his sleeve.
