News

By Akhila Menon
Madhupal,
the
writer-director
slammed
the
rumours
regarding
his
upcoming
project,
Mammootty
starrer
Karnan's
title.
The
film-maker
confirmed
that
the
title
of
the
movie
is
Dharma
Kshetram.
According
to
Madhupal,
the
social
media
criticisms
which
point
that
Mammootty
cannot
play
Karnan
at
this
age
is
absolutely
baseless.
He
requested
the
trollers
to
read
Mahabharatha,
before
commenting.
He
also
stated
that
it
is
unfair
to
compare
between
Mammootty
and
Prithviraj's
Karnan
characters,
as
both
the
projects
deal
with
the
two
different
phases
of
Karnan's
life.
The
director
also
confirmed
that
the
team
will
announce
the
title
and
further
details
of
the
movie
at
the
right
time.
Madhupal
feels
that
such
a
big
project
needs
great
homework.
Prithiviraj-RS
Vimal
team
has
also
announced
a
project
titled
Karnan,
recently.
According
to
the
sources,
Prithvi
is
depicting
the
inner
conflicts
which
Karnan
goes
through
at
his
30's.
Mammootty,
on
the
other
hand,
is
said
to
be
portraying
the
last
days
of
Karnan.
So
it
is
almost
confirmed
that
both
the
projects
deal
with
entirely
different
themes,
even
though
the
characters
are
same.
Madhupal-Mammootty
team's
Karnan
is
penned
by
actor-director
P
Sreekumar.
It
is
a
highly
ambitious
project
for
the
writer,
who
has
been
working
on
the
script
since
almost
a
decade.
