The race begins

  • IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,October 20 2005]

The competition is hotting up. The Deepavali and Ramzan season is almost upon us.

And the race for new releases has begun. Quite unlike Onam, the big-ticket challenge ----between Mammooty and Mohanlal --- may not happen.

Mohanal’s movie may be delayed, reports say. But there is no doubt over Mammooty’s Rajamanickam.

If anything, it is the biggest attraction of the season.

Valiyaveetil Films, which is producing as well as distributing the film, are flooded with offers and advances.

Mammooty is riding a crest wave success. His last few films have been major hits. (Taskaraveeran, Thommanum Makkalum, Nerariyan).

Mammooty is slowly switching over to mass roles---speaking local lingo. In Rajamanickam, he speaks the Trivandrum slang and is playing a cow dealer.

The audiences are anxiously waiting for the film’s release.
