Gautham Menon to play a major role in Dulquer Salmaan’s next

Dulquer Salmaan’s Tamil rom-com Kannum Kannum Kollai Adithaal (KKKA) has been in the making for some time now. The movie directed by debutant Desingh Periyasamy was supposed to hit screens in December but got postponed due to some unknown reasons. As per latest reports, the makers are working towards an early 2019 release.

‘Pelli Choopulu’ fame Ritu Varma plays the female lead in the movie. Popular television host Rakshan and Niranjani Ahathian also play major roles. Latest to join the cast is ace filmmaker Gautham Vasudev Menon, who will be playing a crucial role. The director will be seen throughout the movie in a role that is highly prominent in the storyline. Though GVM has acted in quite a few films earlier, it is first with Dulquer, so it will be interesting see them together on-screen.

KKKA has Dulquer playing the role of Sidharth aka Sid, a happy-go-lucky IT professional. Unlike his earlier Tamil films, this one will have some stylish heroic elements as his character has a larger-than-life persona. The actor himself has said that KKKA will be more colourful and louder than the films that he has been doing lately.

It is also said that Dulquer will be making his Tamil playback singing debut with KKKA. Popular music band Masala Cafe have been signed to compose for the movie. Anto Joseph is producing the movie under the banner of Anto Joseph Film Company.

Maamaankam director admits having ego issues with production team

For the last few weeks, there have been lot of talks going on about Maamaankam, the period flick starring Mammootty in the lead. After a swift progress in the first two schedules, the team was hit by a few controversies. Actor Druvan was unceremoniously ousted from the movie followed by reports about issues between the director and production team. Sajeev Pillai is the director and Venu Kunnampilly of Kavya Films is producing this ambitious project.

Maamaankam is being made on a huge budget of Rs 45 crores, so the makers are not willing to take risk with a debutant director. It has now been confirmed that Unni Mukundan has replaced Druvan and veteran M Padmakumar has been signed to assist Sajeev Pillai. The director has so far been very hesitant to open up about the issues but in a recent interview to TOI, he has admitted about having ego issues with the production team. However, he was not willing to accept the makers’ allegation that his work was not up to the mark.

According to Sajeev, the team has several experienced technicians and actors, so there was no reason that the work was substandard. Also Mammootty was thoroughly impressed with the output of whatever they have shot so far. Sajeev adds that he has no issues with Padmakumar coming on board. It’s a big project and they will be next shooting the battle sequences and scenes, so it demands a big creative team.

Besides Mammootty, ‘Maamaankam’ has huge star cast with several non-Malayali actors in it. Bollywood actress Prachi Desai, Prachi Tehlan, Malavika Menon and former Miss Tamil Nadu Abhirami V Iyer have reportedly been signed as the female leads. Neeraj Madhav, Baburaj, Sunil Sukhada, Meghanathan and Sohan Seenulal are already confirmed in the supporting cast.

The movie’s technical crew comprises of renowned cinematographer Ganesh Rajavelu, action choreographer Kaecha Khamphakdee, editor Sreekar Prasad, music director M Jayachandran and VFX supervisor Kamala Kannan.

Due to the competition and split of shows – #Petta #Viswasam gross numbers won’t be in the range of recent biggies (mostly solo) like #2Point0 #Sarkar #Kaala #Mersal – Tkt prices have also marginally reduced post GST reduction. Gross will be lowered

Petta directed by Karthik Subbaraj has tremendous pre-release hype. Expectations are sky-high after the super impressive posters and teaser.
