The
recent
controversy
between
producers
and
exhibitors
in
the
Malayalam
film
industry
over
releasing
superstars'
films
in
A
and
B
class
theatres
has
been
solved
in
a
conciliation
meeting
between
Ministers
Paloli
Mohammed
Kutty
and
M.A.
Baby,
and
the
members
of
the
film
association.
According
to
new
settlement,
Mohanlal's
much-anticipated
Kurukshetra,
the
third
venture
by
army
officer-turned-filmmaker
Major
Ravi,
will
be
released
in
both
A
and
B
class
theatres
on
Wednesday
(October
8).
On
the
other
hand,
Mammootty's
Maya
Bazaar,
that
was
released
only
in
B
and
C
class
theatres
few
days
ago,
will
be
released
in
A
class
theatres
from
this
week
onwards.
Kurukshetra,
a
big-budget
flick
produced
by
Santhosh
Damodaran
under
the
Damor
Films
banner,
is
based
on
the
director's
hazardous
experiences
of
the
Kargil
war
between
India
and
Pakistan
that
took
place
between
May
and
July
1999
in
Kashmir.
Mohanlal
will
appear
as
Colonel
Mahadevan,
who
is
all
determined
to
reclaim
the
land
grabbed
by
Pakistani
soldiers
in
the
Kargil
valley.
Kannada
star
Tanya
Singh
and
Nehak
Bhatia
will
be
the
female
leads.
Kurukshetra,
a
sequel
to
Keertichakra,
will
feature
three
war
sequences,
constituting
one-third
of
the
movie.
The
movie
will
also
feature
real
war
practice
sessions
of
the
Indian
Army.
The
story,
dialogues
and
screenplay
are
by
the
director
himself.
The
film
has
four
songs
written
by
Girish
Puthencherry
and
set
music
by
Siddarth.
One
song
will
be
in
Hindi.
Along
with
Mohanlal,
Siddique,
Biju
Menon,
Cochin
Haneefa
and
Sooraj
Venjaranmoodu
are
also
in
the
cast.
