Dulquer Salmaan-Amal Neerad project has lots of surprises in store

Dulquer Salmaan is currently shooting for Amal Neerad’s yet to be titled movie abroad. The second schedule of the movie started in November in Mexico. Now the team will be moving down to Latin American countries for canning some important portions. Apparently, this will be the first time a Malayalam movie is being shot in Latin America.

The movie has been in the making for sometime now. First schedule of the movie happened in Kottayam and surrounding areas. That was completed by September. But the abroad schedule got postponed due to Visa problems.

Looks like this movie has got loads of surprise in store for us. During the initial shoot days in Kottayam, Dulquer was seen riding an Yezdi wearing the local attire, mundu. Even the first look posters released for his birthday had him in a rustic look. So it was expected that the movie will be a entertainer set in the Kottayam area. This was considered a refreshing change beacuse most of Dulquer Salmaan’s and Amal Neerad’s movies are set in the urban milieu.

Now we hear that major portions of the movie are set in the US and other nearby countries. The team is planning to shoot a lot of the portions in a few states in the US apart from Texas. After that they will be moving down south. Dulquer Salmaan, Jinu Joseph, Karthika, John Vijay and many other international artists are also part of this schedule. According to the director, the major plot of the movie very much evolves from this part of the world.

Action Hero Biju fame Anu Emmanuel was initially roped in to play the female lead. She even shot for a few scenes but was later replaced by newcomer Karthika Muraleedharan.

There may be different opinions regarding National Anthem but you should not disrespect it, says Joy Mathew

There may be different opinions regarding National Anthem but you should not disrespect it, says Joy Mathew

The 21st IFFK commenced on December 9th in Thiruvananthapuram. Last day during the screening of the Egyptian movie Clash, six delegates were taken into police custody for not standing when the national anthem was played before the movie started.

Actor/filmmaker Joy Mathew shared his thoughts about the incident in an interview. He said, there can be many opinions about the Supreme Court’s directive to play the national anthem before every screening in the Festival but no one should disrespect the national anthem.

Those who are against this new development should fight the case legally before the court.

National anthem is a result of sweat and blood of many people and it should not be dishonoured by anyone. Such people should not receive any privileges of the government. They should not attend the Film Festival at free of cost.

If police has arrested them, they should get a bail and fight the case legally. There is no point in disrespecting the national anthem. I don’t see any revolution in that.

It depends on the political beliefs of each person. But according to me, even if one is against the national anthem being played at every screening, he/she should not show any kind of disrespect. Such issues should be faced only legally.

The arrest of the six delegates including a woman has created a huge uproar among the audience. A film society based in Kerala approached the Supreme Court seeking exemption for the ongoing IFFK.

They cited the sheer number of films being screened at the IFFK and said that it would cause inconvenience to the 1500 odd foreign guests attending the event. However the court dismissed the plea.
