Rama Sethu: Jayasurya’s film based on Metro Man E Sreedharan to begin in October

Aa reported by us earlier, Jayasurya will be starring in ‘Rama Sethu’, a film based on the life of Metro Man, E Sreedharan. VK Prakash will be directing the movie and it is scripted by S Suresh Babu. Arun Narayan is producing the film and the makers have roped in veteran Ravi K Chandran to wield the camera. Pre-production works for this ambitious film is currently progressing and the makers are planning to start shooting in October.

E Sreedharan is credited for changing the face of public transport in India. He is well known for his efficient leadership in building the Konkan Railway, Delhi Metro and Kerala’s own Kochi Metro. Interestingly, scenarist Suresh Babu had earlier planned another film titled ‘Arabi Kadalinte Rani – The Metro Woman’ with Rima Kallingal as the lead. It was about Lalitha, an ordinary textile worker, and her attempts to meet her idol E Sreedharan. M Padmakumar was supposed to direct the film but it got dropped.

Suresh Babu later adapted the screenplay to develop it as a full fledged biopic. In ‘Rama Sethu’, the focus will be on Sreedharan’s professional journey and since it has a biopic nature, the movie will traverse multiple timelines. Jayasurya will be portraying his life from the age of early 30s to 80s. The story will be told from the perspective of two characters – Uthaman, a railway canteen employee, and his daughter Lathika, the same old textile worker.

Last day, Vishnu took to his social media handle to reveal about tough the last two years had been for him, both phsyically and mentally. An unfortunate divorce with his wife after being together for 11 years, separation from his son, financial losses and a major injury he suffered during shoot all moved him to a state of depression and he found solace in alcohol.

After a months of nothing going his way, Vishnu decided to seek help, physically and mentally. Six months after that, the actor is all charged up now. He has lost around 16 kilos and is currently in a happy state a mind. On the professional front, he has a handful of promising projects coming up.

Director AL Vijay is currently biopic on the biopic of late Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa. The film titled as ‘Thalaivi’ has Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut is playing the lead. The makers had earlier released a first look and teaser which were subjected to severe trolls for the shoddy makeup. Kangana’s face did not have any resemblance to the late leader and the awfully done makeup and bad prosthetics did not help either.

The makers of ‘Thalaivi’ seem to have learnt a lesson as they have got Arvind Swamy to play the role of MGR, the legendary actor-turned-politician. A couple of his photos from the sets have been released and Swamy bears a striking resemblance to MGR. Add to that, the veteran’s solid acting skills, the character seems to be in safe hands.
