Superstar
Mohanlal
is
back
to
film
distribution,
something
he
had
done
eight
years
back!
The
actor
and
producer
Antony
Perumbavoor
have
decided
to
set
up
a
film
distribution
company,
Maxlab
Entertainments,
to
establish
a
multiplex
chain
throughout
Kerala.
The
first
multiplex
will
be
coming
up
near
Chalakudy,
at
a
cost
of
Rs.
25
crore.
Work
on
it
would
start
sometime
in
September.
Industrialist
K.C.
Babu
and
Asianet
chief
K.
Madhavan
will
also
co-venture
with
this
project.
Mohanlal,
Antony
and
a
group
of
close
friends
will
also
launch
a
television
channel
in
the
near
future,
sources
said.
Earlier,
Mohanlal
and
producer
Antony
Perumbavoor
of
Aashirwad
Cinemas
had
said
goodbye
to
their
long-standing
association
with
Central
Pictures,
Kottayam,
the
oldest
distributors
in
Kerala.
Aashirwad
and
Central
Pictures
had
produced
and
distributed
a
string
of
Mohanlal
films
including
Rasathantram,
Naran,
Baba
Kalyani,
Ali
Bhai,
Innathe
Chintha
Vishayam,
etc.
From
now
onwards,
Maxlab
will
be
distributing
Aashirwad's
films.
