Midhun
Manuel
Thomas,
who
became
an
independent
director
with
the
film
Aadu,
is
definitely
a
happy
man
as
he
has
been
receiving
some
thunderous
responses
for
his
most
recent
film
Ann
Maria
Kalippilaanu.
His
debut
film
Aadu,
wasn't
a
big
success
in
theatres
but
later,
the
film
went
on
to
attain
a
cult
following
among
the
viewers.
And
now,
here
is
an
exciting
news
for
all
the
fans
of
the
movie
Aadu.
In
a
recent
interview
given
to
SouthLive,
Midhun
Manuel
Thomas
stated
that
he
is
working
on
a
sequel
to
the
film
Aadu.
The
one-liner
of
the
story
is
ready
and
the
director-writer
would
work
on
it
further.
He
also
suggested
that
Aadu
2
would
cover
a
new
episode
in
the
life
of
Shaji
Papaan
and
the
film
would
be
an
out-and-out
masala
entertainer.
The
film
has
been
tentatively
titled
as
Shaji
Pappan.
The
sequel
will
also
bring
back
all
the
main
characters
from
the
prequel.
Aadu
had
Jayasurya
in
the
lead
role
as
Shaji
Pappan.
Aadu,
at
the
time
of
its
release
had
received
mostly
negative
reviews,
but
now
it
is
one
of
the
most
talked
about
movies
in
social
media
circuits
like
Facebook.
The
film
had
an
ensemble
star
cast
comprising
of
actors
like
Jayasurya,
Vijay
Babu,
Sunny
Wayne,
Vinayakan,
Dharmajan
Bolghatty,
Chemban
Vinod
Jose,
Saiju
Kurup
etc.
in
important
roles.
