Uncle,
the
Mammootty
starring
family
drama,
is
one
of
the
most
anticipated
upcoming
projects
of
Malayalam
cinema.
The
Mammootty
movie,
which
will
mark
the
directorial
debut
of

Damodar,
has
finally
started
rolling.
The
team
recently
began
the
shooting
of
Uncle
in
Kozhikode,
which
is
the
major
location
of
the
movie.
Lead
actor
Mammootty
is
yet
to
join
the
sets
of
the
movie,
which
is
actor-director
Joy
Mathew's
second
outing
as
a
scriptwriter.
Reportedly,
Uncle
deals
with
a
highly
relevant
social
issue
and
revolves
around
a
nuclear
family.
The
movie
depicts
the
peculiar
bonding
between
a
17-year-old
girl
and
her
father's
best
friend,
whom
she
fondly
addresses
as
'uncle'.
Reportedly,
Mammootty's
character
in

said
to
be
a
unique
one,

totally
different
from
his
earlier
roles.
