Shoot postponed for Dulquer Salmaan- Lal Jose team’s Oru Bhayankara Kamukan

We had earlier reported that Dulquer Salmaan will be teaming with director Lal Jose for an upcoming movie titled as Oru Bhayankara Kamukan. The movie is scripted by Unni R.

Shoot for the movie was initially planned to start by February. However, the movie’s producer Shebin Backer has now informed Onlookers Media that the shoot has been postponed to August, owing to Dulquer Salmaan’s busy schedule. The actor recently completed his portions for Soubin Shahir’s debut directorial Parava. He is playing a cameo role in the movie.

Dulquer will next join the second schedule of Bejoy Nambiar’s Solo, a bilingual made in Malayalam and Tamil. He is also awaiting the release of his highly expected movie Comrade In America aka CIA, directed by Amal Neerad.

Dulquer will be seen as a naadan guy in Lal Jose’s Oru Bhayankara Kamukan. He will be seen in a lungi clad naadan guy-next-door character. Reportedly, the movie is set in a small town near a forest. Dulquer will be playing a resident of that village. Casting for the movie has not yet been completed.

Dulquer has always been comfortable doing the sophisticated rich guy or a gangster. But of late, he has deliberately tried to move away from being stereotyped. He played an angry young man in Kali, a free spirited vagabond in Charlie. In Kammatipaadam he played the role of an aged gangster. In Amal Neerad’s CIA he is playing the role of a Pala based younger who travels to US to meet his girlfriend.

Oru Bhayankara Kamukan marks the actor’s second time teaming up with Lal Jose after the superhit movie Vikramadithyan, which was released in 2014. Unni R has also worked with Dulquer previously in Charlie and Kullante Bharya, in the anthology 5 Sundharikal.

Congress leader PC Vishnunadh against Oru Mexican Aparatha

Tovino Thomas highly anticipated campus political drama Oru Mexican Aparatha is releasing tomorrow in around 80 theatres in Kerala. The movie comes in with a baggage of expectations after the promo song and trailer was well received in social medias.

Congress leader and former MLA PC Vishnunadh has taken a dig at the movie and the politics it discusses in his latest Facebook post.

He has written that Oru Mexican Aparatha is a masala film that is fuelled with commercial gimmicky, and that it cannot be compared with some quality movies of the same genre, that have previously released in Malayalam cinema. In his post, he has written in detail about the history of student politics in Kerala and how Kerala Students Union (KSU) paved way for many changes in the educational system of Kerala.

He has written, “We will have to wait and watch whether Oru Mexican Aparatha discusses about the current political situation in campuses and about the plight of students in private colleges. If the movie follows a formulaic masala route instead of focusing on such issues, it will thrown to trash by the audience.

He mentioned Vetrimaran’s Visaranai as the best political drama in recent times. He felt that it is a sin if movies like Oru Mexican Aparatha with fake politics with historical blunders, is released in the same time period as Visaranai. He also alleged that SFI is in a dire situation in Kerala after supporting the principal in the Law Academy issues and the recent moral policing incidents and that the movie will do no good for their lost image.

Oru Mexican Aparatha is written and directed by debutant Tom Emmatty. The movie stars Tovino Thomas, Neeraj Madhav, Roopesh Peethambaran, Gayathri Suresh and Kalabhavan Shajon in major roles. From the trailer we can make out that Tovino and Neeraj represent the left front while Roopesh, Kalabhavan Shajon and others represent the opposition. To avoid controversies, the makers have changed the names of the political parties to SFY and KSQ.
