Mollywood megastar Mohanlal is teaming up with ad filmmaker Shrikumar for Randamoozham, which will made on a whopping budget of Rs 1000 crore.
While the film is slated to go on the floors next year, an interesting update has cropped up.
According to reports, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has written a letter to producer BR Shetty, expressing his support for the gargantuan project.
In his letter, Modi has said he is awaiting the release of the film, which will be a matter of pride for the entire nation.
Reports also suggest the team has sought permission to meet Narendra Modi on July 7. It must be noted that the film ran into a controversy when the president of the Kerala Hindu Aikya Vedi had threatened to stall the release of Mohanlal’s film if they use the title Mahabharatham.
To be directed by Shrikumar Menon, the first part of Mahabharata will hit the screens in 2020, while the second part will release 90 days after the first part.
Mohanlal plays Bheema in Randamoozham, while actors Nagarjuna has been approached for Karna’s role. Also, the latest buzz is that actors Amitabh Bachchan and Kamal Haasan are being considered for the film.
