It
was
indeed
a
big
shock
for
all
the
audience
when
director
Ranjith
declared
that
he
had
dropped
his
project
with
Mohanlal,
Manju
Warrier
and
Prithviraj
and
is
planning
to
do
a
movie
only
with
Mohanlal.
People
got
even
more
surprised
when
the
director
dropped
that
too.
Now,
Ranjith
comes
forward
giving
an
explanation
to
all
stating
what
happened
with
the
movie?
Ranjith
said
that
when
Manju
Warrier
decided
to
make
a
comeback
into
the
industry,
she
had
called
him
up
and
said
that
she
would
love
to
make
a
re-entry
with
his
movie.
But,
Ranjith
told
her
that
she
should
be
back
looking
into
the
script
and
not
by
looking
people.
After
his
movie
with
Mohanlal,
Ranjith
had
again
planned
another
film
with
the
actor
and
it
was
the
story
of
a
couple.
So,
he
thought
of
casting
Manju
Warrier
in
the
movie.
Adding
on,
Ranjith
said
that
there
was
another
pivotal
character
in
the
script
and
he
needed
someone
talented
to
execute
it.
And
so,
he
approached
Prithviraj
and
he
instantly
accepted
the
offer.
It
is
to
be
remembered
that
it
is
a
longing
desire
of
Prithviraj
to
act
along
with
Mohanlal
and
so
he
did
not
want
to
miss
the
chance.
Producer
Anthony
Perumbavoor
too
was
happy
with
the
cast
and
that's
how
a
movie
with
Mohanlal,
Manju
and
Prithviraj
was
decided.
Later,
Prithviraj
called
up
Ranjith
and
told
him
that
the
climax
of
the
movie
is
somewhat
similar
to
the
film
Thira,
directed
by
Vineeth
Sreenivasan
and
Thira
was
getting
ready
for
release.
After
calling
up
Vineeth,
finding
that
it
was
true,
Ranjith
dropped
his
movie.
Now,
he
had
three
big
stars
with
him
and
he
wanted
a
script.
But,
unfortunately
he
could
not
write
one
with
equal
importance
to
all.
So,
he
called
up
Prithviraj
first
and
later
Manju
Warrier
and
told
them
that
he
cannot
do
a
movie
with
them
now.
Ranjith
decided
to
do
a
movie
with
Mohanlal,
but
even
that
did
not
work
out.
The
director
says
that
the
main
issue
was
he
writes
a
script
and
then
make
the
casting.
He
was
not
used
to
deciding
the
cast
at
first
and
then
writing
a
script.
This
had
finally
landed
up
in
Ranjith
wrapping
up
his
project
totally.
Ranjith
says
that
he
has
no
projects
at
present,
but
he
is
producer
of
the
movie
directed
by
cameraman
Venu.
Mammootty
plays
the
lead
role
in
that
film.
