Aaha: Indrajith Sukumaran’s next is a tug of war based film

Indrajith Sukumaran is having a memorable 2019. After delivering an excellent performance in the brief-yet-impactful role in ‘Lucifer’, the actor is now getting applause for his character Baburaj in ‘Virus’. Amidst a host of other big stars, Indrajith has easily managed to make a mark for himself. This year, he has some other interesting films coming up. One such project has been announced today through superstar Mohanlal’s official social media handle.

The movie titled as ‘Aaha’ is apparently a sports based flick. Kerala’s own sport ‘tug of war’ aka ‘vadamvali’ is the centre of attraction here.

‘Aaha’ has a relatively new set of names behind the camera. Debutant Bibin Paul Samuel is editing and directing the movie. It is scripted by Tobit Chirayath and produced by Prem Abraham of Zsa Zsa Productions. Cinematographer Rahul Balachandran, music directors Sayanora Philip and Shiyad Kabeer (background score) are also part of the technical crew. More details will be revealed in the coming days.

Indrajith is currently busy shooting for ‘Thuramukham’ directed by Rajeev Ravi. Kiran Prabhakaran’s ‘Thakkol’ and ‘Lucifer’ editor Samjith Muhammed’s maiden directorial ‘Thalanarizha’ are also coming up for the actor. He has also finished his portions for a Tamil web series based on the life of late actress-turned-politician J Jayalalithaa. Gautham Menon is directing the series that has Indrajith play the role of MGR. The series is being planned to be aired from August.

Madhvan and Simran reunite after 15 years for Rocketry – The Nambi Effect

As we already know, R Madhavan is starring in as well as the directing the biopic of famous scientist Nambi Narayanan. The movie titled as ‘Rocketry – The Nambi Effect’ also marks his directorial debut. It is being made as a multilingual in three languages – Tamil, English and Hindi.

While Madhavan plays Nambi Narayanan’s role, actress Simran has been roped in to essay the role of his wife. Madhvan has just now shared photos of the two from the movie’s sets. Interestingly, it is after 15 long years that the duo is acting together. They last shared screen space in Mani Ratnam’s ‘Kannathil Muthamittal’, in which also they played a pair.

‘Rocketry’, said to be one of the most challenging films in Madhavan’s career, has him appearing in multiple looks. Since the story traverses different timelines, Madhavan has been very particular about his looks. The actor currently sports a clean shaven young look. He had earlier put on weight and grew long beard and hair to look strikingly similarly to the aged Nambi Narayanan.

Nambi Narayanan was a cryogenic division head at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). In 1994, he was falsely charged with espionage and arrested. The charges against him were later squashed by the CBI and the Supreme Court declared him not guilty.

‘Rocketry’, the movie, is based on Nambi Narayanan’s own book ‘Ready to fire: How India and I survived the ISRO spy case’, which details about the controversial case and his infamous arrest. Prajesh Sen, a journalist-turned-filmmaker from Kerala, who made his directorial debut with the Jayasurya starrer ‘Captain’, is part of ‘Rocketry’ team as the co-director.

AR Rahman to score music for Mohanlal-Santosh Sivan film Kaliyugam

It has been a while since talks about Mohanlal teaming up with Santosh Sivan have been doing the rounds. The movie titled ‘Kaliyugam’ is said to be a mega budget project, that will be backed by Gokulam Gopalan. Though an official confirmation is yet to be made, we hear that the project is definitely happening and its primary works have already begun.

If things turn out as per planned, AR Rahman will be composing music for the film. Interestingly, the maestro’s last released Malayalam movie was ‘Yodha’ which also had Mohanlal in the lead. Santosh Sivan was also part of the 1992 film as the cinematographer. It must be noted that Rahman is also composing music for Prithviraj’s upcoming film ‘Aadujeevitham’.

‘Kaliyugam’ is expected to go on floors only after Mohanlal wraps up the works for his directorial debut ‘Barroz’, which is scheduled to begin from October. Several rumours are going around the movie’s genre, but we are still waiting for an official word.

Zayed Masood will have more prominence in Lucifer 2

Talks about ‘Lucifer’ have not yet settled down. The movie which was released on March 28 has shattered all possible box office records in Malayalam and is heading towards its 100th day of theatrical run. Even after its online release in Amazon Prime, the movie is still being screened in a select few theatres in the state. The Mohanlal starrer is currently the highest grossing Malayalam movie. As claimed by the makers, it has done an overall business that exceeds well over Rs 200 crores.

Ever since the release of ‘Lucifer’, there have been numerous talks about the possibilities of a sequel to the movie. The makers have left several open ends in the film and also a very intriguing tail end. Time and again, they have also added fuel to the already existing speculations by hinting about a second part.

Prithviraj, who made his directorial debut with ‘Lucifer’, was asked about the possibility of a sequel in a recent interview. He confirmed that they are working on a few ideas. Apparently, ‘Lucifer’ was never conceived as an one-film story. The second part demands a much bigger scale and treatment. So they had to wait and see the audience response for ‘Lucifer’. Now that the movie has done such phenomenal business, the second part is definitely happening.

Prithviraj also added that along with Mohanlal’s character Abram Qureshi, ‘Lucifer 2’ will have Zayed Masood in a key role. Zayed, the character played by Prithviraj, had limited screen presence but despite that he managed to make quite an impact. In the second part, it is assured that the two will have equal importance. If that’s the case, it will be nothing short of a treat to watch the two stars together on screen once again.

Official: Jayasurya to star in legendary actor Sathyan’s biopic

We were among the first to report about Jayasurya starring in the biopic of late Malayalam actor Sathyan. Today, on the 48th death anniversary of the legend, the official announcement regarding the project was made. Debutant Ratheesh Reghunandan is directing the movie and script is penned jointly by BT Anil Kumar and KG Santhosh. Vijay Babu of Friday Film House is producing the movie.

Sathyan, popularly known as Sathyan Master, was one of the first major star actors in Malayalam cinema. At a time when acting was more dramatic, Sathyan was famous for his realistic style of performance. A recipient of two Kerala State awards, Sathyan has acted in over 100 films between 1951 and 1971. ‘Thacholi Othenan’, ‘Odayil Ninnu’, ‘Chemeen’, ‘Yakshi’ and ‘Anubhavangal Paalichakal’ are some of his most popular films.

It will be really interesting to see how a versatile actor like Jayasurya brings life to Sathyan’s character. It must be remembered that, last year, the actor had starred in the biopic of late Indian footballer VP Sathyan. The movie titled ‘Captain’ won him a Kerala State award for his stellar performance .

Jayasurya was last seen working on ‘Lilli’ fame Prasobh Vijayan’s new film, which is yet to be titled. He has also committed for ‘Vellam’ with Prajesh Sen and ‘Thrissur Pooram’ with Rajesh Mohanan.
