Shaji in all honors for Mammootty

  • IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,November 10 2010]

In tinsel town, it is the rarest of the occasion when a mainstream superstar calls a director for a new project, after their previous one ended up as a big failure. That rarest thing was something that Mammootty has done for me.

When I was sitting idle after ‘Drona’ flopped, Mammukka just called me and asked what my next plans are? He just told me not to feel dejected and to meet him immediately. I never thought that he had already finalized ‘August15’ with me as the director, when he made the call sad director Shaji Kailash.

Shaji is in all praise for the super star. “Mammukka reassured the faith in me and quoted his career where he made several comebacks after setbacks. I am really indebted to him for the movie, which has boosted my confidence like anything” added Shaji.

Shaji Kailash is presently calling the shots for ‘August 15’, a suspense thriller at various locations in the capital city, which will grace the theatres by the third week of December as a Christmas release. The movie by Sunitha productions is scripted by S N Swamy.
