Well,
2016
was
a
year
worth
remembering
for
Mohanlal.
Apart
from
the
fact
that
he
delivered
back-to-back
blockbusters,
the
year
also
established
himself
as
one
of
the
most
popular
Malayalam
actors
in
the
Telugu
speaking
regions.
Banking
on
that
newly
gained
popularity,
the
Telugu
version
of
Mohanlal's
Oppam,
directed
by
Priyadarshan
is
all
set
to
hit
the
theatres.
Earlier,
the
film
was
slated
to
release
by
the
last
week
of
December,
but
now
the
makers
have
come
up
with
a
new
release
date.
Reportedly,
the
film,
which
has
been
titled
as
Kanupapa
will
hit
the
theatres
on
February
3,
2017.
The
makers
are
also
planning
to
release
the
audio
track
of
the
film
on
January
25,
2017.
Reportedly,
the
dubbing
rights
of
the
film
has
been
bought
by
Overseas
Network
Entertainment.
Earlier,
Mohanlal's
Pulimurugan
was
also
dubbed
in
to
Telugu
as
Manyam
Puli
and
the
film
did
a
whopping
business
out
there
giving
a
stiff
competition
to
other
Telugu
movies.
We
hope
that
the
dubbed
version
of
Oppam
will
recreate
the
same
magic
in
Telugu
speaking
regions,
as
well.
Going
by
the
present
popularity
of
Mohanlal,
it
is
quite
obvious
for
the
film
to
make
it
big
at
the
box
office.
