It
is
indeed
a
big
dream
of
any
film-maker
to
work
with
a
magical
actor
like
Mohanlal.
Many
film-makers
and
actors
have
often
spoken
about
their
wishes
to
work
with
Mohanlal.
On
the
other
hand,
director
Jayaraj
is
one
such
craftsman
who
is
well-known
for
his
versatility.
He
is
one
of
those
rare
film-makers
who
have
tried
and
tested
movies
of
various
genres.
His
films
have
garnered
praises
at
the
award
circuits
and
the
Best
Director
trophy
that
he
won
most
recently
at
the
national
Level,
underlines
that
fact.
Well,
a
film
from
Mohanlal
and
Jayaraj
team
have
been
in
the
wishlist
of
most
of
the
Malayalam
film
audiences.
According
to
report
by
Mathrubhumi,
it
was
in
an
interview
given
to
a
private
television
channel
that
Jayaraj
opened
up
about
the
instance
when
they
were
supposed
to
work
for
a
film
together.
He
stated
that
he
is
sure
that
a
memorable
Malayalam
film
will
be
born
if
both
of
them
work
together
but
the
chances
for
the
same
are
less.
Mohanlal-Jayaraj
Movie
Reportedy,
the
film-maker
revealed
that
after
Desadanam,
the
film
which
had
hit
the
theatres
in
1996,
Mohanlal's
production
company
had
come
up
with
an
offer
for
him.
Jayaraj
was
planning
to
do
a
film,
with
the
backdrop
of
a
rain,
with
Mohanlal.
When
The
Film
Was
Dropped..
Jayaraj
also
added
that
even
the
song
recording
of
the
film
was
completed.
But,
because
of
a
mistake
from
his
part
due
to
certain
events
in
his
life,
he
decided
not
to
do
the
project.
Jayaraj
also
added
that
Mohanlal
might
have
been
disappointed
with
that
and
later,
despite
approaching
the
actor
many
a
time,
he
didn't
accept
any
of
his
scripts.
Mohanlal's
Response..
Jayaraj
stated
that
Mohanlal
was
on
a
family
trip
back
then
and
the
team
had
even
decided
the
costumes
and
shooting
locations
of
the
movie.
Mohanlal
cancelled
the
tour
and
came
back
for
the
purpose
of
shoot
and
it
was
after
his
return
that
the
actor
got
to
know
about
the
film
being
cancelled.
Jayaraj
admitted
that
it
was
his
own
mistake.
According
to
Jayaraj,
upon
the
cancellation
of
the
project,
Mohanlal
said
to
him
that
he
could
have
informed
this
in
prior.
Kunjali
Marakkar..
Jayaraj
also
mentioned
that
he
had
given
the
script
of
Kunjali
Marakkar
to
Mohanlal
and
he
had
kept
the
script
for
three
years.
Later,
he
also
approached
the
actor
for
Veeram
but
Mohanlal
asked
him
whether
all
these
would
be
practical.
Later,
Veeram
was
done
by
actor
Kunal
Kapoor
and
the
film
had
hit
the
theatres
in
2017.
