Alexander The Great

Thursday, January 1, 1970 • മലയാളം Comments

Superstar Mohanlal's new movie to get to theaters is ''Alexander, the great'', which is in its final touches to be on theaters. This flick is directed by Murali Nagavally, a very senior associate to Priyadarshan whose debut movie in Mollywood was 'Wanted', which featured Mohanlal in a guest role. Produced by V B K Menon under the banner of Anugraha Cine Arts, Alexander the great, was extensively shot in Dubai and Mumbai.

Mohanlal plays the title character of the movie, peculiarly named as Alexander Varma. A smart and witty genius, who has got some mysterious secrets behind him, he is a man of multitasking and vision.

Alexander's entry into the plot happens as Prathamavarma, the owner of wealthy Dubai-based business group, Varma Corporation, dies unexpectedly. Following his cremation, many relatives and people in his circuit vie to take control of the business group. To end the ongoing tussle for power, the last thing that can give a clear picture was Varma's 'Will' that was to be read in a couple of days. Even to the surprise of Varma's son Manu, it happens that Varma has written in his will to hand over his every possession to one Alexander Varma, who was residing in Mumbai.

No one in the family or friends of Varma had slightest knowledge about such a person. But as it turns out in the deed, the family goes in search of 'Alexander Varma' and brings him to Dubai to steer the empire without causalities. The movie, which in plot gives an air of a different venture from the regular potboilers, will have Hindi actress Meenakshi Dixit as the heroine. Bala, Siddique, Jagadheesh, Sai Kumar and Sudha Chandran are also  in the cast.

`Alexander The Great' is scripted by journalist C Balachandran. While D Kannan is in charge of cinematography, M G Sreekumar and Gireesh Puthencherry handle the music section.

'Alexander The Great ', with plenty of comic, thrilling sequences and a big twist in the climax, will get into theaters this season.
