0

Mollywood is now moving in the right track after getting two super Hits in the Vishu season name Ennum Eppozhum and Oru Vadakkan Selfie which released on 27th of March. Later release  Mammootty’s Bhaskar The Rascal also getting promising start at box office made the April Month a prosper one for Mollywood after a sluggish start to this year with little hit films in the first 3 Months of 2015. The story of mollywood this year is that Many films got promising beginning but failed to sustain it later and the above mentioned two movies were done it successfully with promising start and sustaining it beautifully till now.

Even in the fourth week of its release both the films still have above 150 shows per day and still getting houseful shows every day at many theaters. Sathyan Anthikkad’s Ennum Eppozhum had become the number one choice for the families and Oru Vadakkan Selfie was took up by the younger ones. Siddique film Bhaskar the rascal also had begun well with mixed opinion and we have to see whether it will sustain it or not as recent Mammootty films such as Varsham and Fireman had failed to sustain the promising beginnings it had got at the start.

And the month of May will be of a Mass Month for Mollywood as many highly expected entertainers is going to hit the screens. Kavya Madhavan-Anoop Menon team’s film She Taxi, janapriya Nayakan  Dileep- Sidharth Bharathan team’s Chandrettan Cvideya and Kunchako Boban’s film Chirakodinja Kinavukal will hit the screens on May 1 itself. Asif Ali starrer film Driver On Duty will be on May 4 and Mohanlal-Amal Paul starring Joshiey film Laila O Laila, Laljose film Neena, Mohanlal’s Kannada blockbuster Mythri’s Malayalam Version and Vineeth Sreenivasan Starrer Oru Second Class Yathra etc will grace the silver screens on May 8.

Just two days after it there comes Kumbasaram starring Jayasurya on May 10 and May 15 is technically also a mass day as Suriya starrer Tamil film Mass is going to hit the screens on that day and from Malayalam also one of the biggest mass film conceived by Lijo Jose Pelliserry titled Double Barrel will be here to compete with Suriya’s Mass.

Mani Ratnam reveals the secret at last

0

Mani Ratnam as we all know one of the best ever directors India has ever produced and his films were always been a source of inspiration for youngsters and aspiring film makers as it has its own unique nature and way of story- telling which is very different from that of all others. Mani Ratnam had always a liking towards characters from our Puraanas and specially from Mahabharatha and Ramayana. He always took stories from them and changes it to suit the modern society and there are many films of him like Thalapathy and Ravan which took its inspiration from stories of Maha Bharatha and Ramayana respectively.

In those above mentioned flicks Thalapathy is the most popular one and that was well received too. Ravan was not so successful and well received. Thalapathy was popular for another factors too and they are the presence of Mammootty and Rajiaikanth together on screen and also another unique rumour that Mani Ratnam had shot two climaxes for that movie. And the known thing is like this as Thalapathy was the story written based on the Maha Bharatha story of Karnna- Duryodhana relation and in this film Mammootty plays the character similar to Duryodhana (his character name is Deva) and Rajinikanth plays the character similar to Karnna ( his character name is Surya).

As per the original story of Maha bharatha Karnna dies in the Kurukshetra war and as per the story in this film Rajinikanth’s character Surya dies at the climax portion and Mani Ratnam shot it that way as well. But Rajinikanth had a great fan base in Tamilnadu who can’t accept the death of their star on screen and they become violent after the first show of the film and burned down the theaters here and there. So Mani Ratnam have to reshoot the climax and made Mammootty’s character Deva to die at the end portion to make the fans of the super star Rajini happy.

But in a recent interview with behindwoods, Mani Ratnam reveals that there was no such things happened with that film and he had only shot one climax which we saw in the film as Deva dies. Mani Ratnam also  said that he don’t have enough money to shoot a single climax at that time and how would have shot two climaxes then.

Mega star Mammootty is reportedly all set to put on the police uniform again in an upcoming flick which will be directed by a newcomer. And the newcomer is none other than the son of writer/director/actor Renji Panicker. His name is Nithin Renji Panicker and he is all prepared to debut with a big film starring Mammootty in which he will play the character of a police officer which will have some eccentric mannerisms which will define the character.

Mammootty is always keen on giving his dates to young and new directors and we can say without any doubt that he is the one in south India who had given chances to new directors more than anyone. Almost 90% of them where very successful film makers now and people like Blessy, Amal Neerad, Anwar Rasheed, Laljose, Vysakh, Ashiq Abu etc are among them who had made their first films with Mammootty and later become successful film makers here.

So Nithin Renji Panicker also seems to be on the way to a successful career with the lucky factor associated with the debut film with Mammootty in the laed. As per reports Mammootty’s character in this film is very different who will be a betel chewing man and that too in very strange ways which add to the interest of the film lovers who is waiting for the flick to roll. Nithin Renji Panicker had the experience of being the assistant and associate of his father Renji Panicker and Shaji Kailas in many films and Nithin is a very talented short story writer too with some notable works.

Mammootty has a lot more projects to finish before he joins the sets of this film by Nithin Renji Panicker. Mammootty is now finishing up the works of Marthandan’s Acha Din after that he will be seen in kamal directorial film after a long gap. Then another film also there titled White which will be helmed by another new comer Uday Ananthan and then only he may start this Nithin Renj Panicker Venture and which may begin in the last part of the month of June this year.
