Well,
Priyadarshan
might
not
have
made
much
movies
with
Mammootty,
but
it
is
known
to
many
that
both
the
actor
and
director
do
share
a
good
friendship.
They
have
known
each
other
since
their
entry
to
the
industry.
Now,
rumours
are
rife
that
Priyadarshan
would
be
directing
Mammootty,
once
again,
after
a
gap
of
close
to
18
years.
Their
previous
association
was
for
the
film
Megham,
which
hit
the
theatres
in
the
year
1999.
If
such
a
project
happens,
it
would
mark
the
fifth
association
of
the
actor
and
the
director.
Priyadarshan
has
directed
Mammootty,
in
4
movies,
so
far.
Reports
are
also
doing
the
rounds
that
the
upcoming
Mammootty-Priyadarshan
project
will
be
a
film
in
the
lines
of
a
road
movie.
Neither
Mammootty
nor
Priyadarshan
have
given
any
confirmation
regarding
the
project.
Meanwhile,
Priyadarshan's
next
project
is
expected
to
be
in
Hindi.
The
Hindi
remake
of
Mohanlal
starrer
Oppam
is
also
in
the
pipeline
for
the
director.
On
the
other
hand,
Mammootty
has
couple
of
big
projects
in
his
kitty.
His
next
release
will
be
his
film
with
young
film-maker
Syam
Dhar.
He
will
also
play
the
lead
role
in
Shamdatt's
streetlights
and
Ajai
Vasudev's
upcoming
big
project.
