To
be
precise,
it
was
on
November
17,
2017
that
the
Malayalam
film
world
witnessed
the
official
announcement
of
one
of
the
most
awaited
movies,
in
the
form
of
Mammootty's
Bilal,
the
sequel
to
Big
B.
The
craze
and
excitement
that
followed
the
announcement
of
Bilal
was
incomparable
and
the
social
media
is
busy
discussing
about
the
project,
even
now.
Nothing
much
has
been
disclosed
about
the
rest
of
the
cast
of
the
movie.
Meanwhile,
rumours
were
rife
that
Dulquer
Salmaan
will
also
be
a
part
of
the
project.
In
fact,
social
media
was
flooded
with
discussions
on
the
probabilities
of
Dulquer
salmaan
being
a
part
of
Bilal.
But,
is
the
young
sensation
really
a
part
of
the
project?
Amal
Neerad,
who
will
be
directing
the
Mammootty
starrer
Bilal,
opened
up
on
the
same
in
an
interview
given
to
Times
Of
India.
Amal
Neerad's
Response
"I
have
always
enjoyed
working
with
Dulquer.
He's
a
great
actor
and
only
adds
more
value
to
any
film
that
he's
part
of.
But
in
Bilal,
I
do
not
think
there
is
space
for
him.
He
will
not
be
part
of
the
movie",
Amal
Neerad
was
quoted
as
saying
to
Times
OF
India
regarding
Dulquer
Salmaan's
association
with
the
project.
What
The
Rumour
Mills
Had
Suggested!
Well,
as
soon
as
the
announcement
on
Bilal
came,
the
rumour
mills
suggested
that
Dulquer
Salmaan
will
play
an
integral
role
in
the
film
and
there
came
reports
that
the
young
actor
will
be
seen
playing
a
character
named
Abu,
who
had
appeared
in
the
climax
sequences
of
Big
B.
Dulquer
Salmaan
-
A
Big
Fan
OF
Big
B
Well,
Dulquer
Salmaan
is
a
huge
fan
of
Mammootty's
Big
B,
directed
by
Amal
Neerad.
He
has
more
than
once
expressed
his
fanship
for
the
movie
and
he
was
also
quite
excited
after
the
announcement
of
the
sequel
surfaced.
These
factors
also
paved
way
for
the
rumours
to
spread.
The
Wait
For
Dulquer
Salmaan-Mammootty
Movie
Well,
a
film
of
Mammootty
and
Dulquer
Salmaan
combo
has
been
in
the
wish
list
of
the
Malayalam
film
audiences.
With
a
confirmation
coming
from
Amal
Neerad
that
Dulquer
Salmaan
won't
be
a
part
of
Bilal,
the
wait
for
a
film
from
this
big
combo
continues.
