Bilal,
the
action
thriller
which
features
Mammootty
in
the
lead
role,
is
unarguably
one
of
the
most-anticipated
upcoming
projects
of
Malayalam
cinema
in
2020.
The
project,
which
is
directed
by
the
renowned
cinematographer-director
Amal
Neerad,
is
a
sequel
to
Big
B,
the
2007-released
movie.
Bilal,
which
was
announced
in
2017,
is
finally
all
set
to
start
rolling
soon.
Mamtha
Mohandas,
the
actress
who
appeared
in
a
pivotal
role
in
Big
B,
recently
confirmed
that
she
is
very
much
a
part
of
the
sequel,
Bilal.
The
actress
will
reprise
her
character
Rimi
Tomy
from
the
original
in
the
sequel
as
well.
Rimi
from
Big
B
is
one
of
the
most-loved
characters
of
Mamtha's
acting
career.
However,
the
team
is
yet
to
reveal
the
rest
of
the
star
cast
and
technical
crew
of
the
Mammootty
project.
But,
the
sources
close
to
the
project
suggest
that
apart
from
Mammootty
and
Mamtha
Mohandas,
Manoj
K
Jayan,
Lena,
and
Bala,
who
played
the
other
key
roles
in
Big
B,
will
reprise
their
respective
roles
in
Bilal.
Big
B,
which
marked
the
directorial
debut
of
Amal
Neerad,
was
not
a
great
commercial
success.
But
the
movie
later
earned
the
cult
status
and
a
strong
fan
base
among
the
Malayalam
cinema
audiences,
with
its
stylish
making
and
crispy
dialogues.
Bilal,
the
sequel
of
Big
B
is
expected
to
start
rolling
by
the
first
week
of
March
2020.
The
pre-production
activities
of
the
project
are
in
full
swing.
Gopi
Sundar,
the
music
director
of
the
project
had
recently
started
the
recording
works
for
the
project,
to
the
much
excitement
of
the
cine-goers.
Amal
Neerad,
the
director
himself
handles
the
cinematography
of
the
project.
The
project
is
scripted
by
Unni
R,
who
was
also
the
writer
of
Big
B.
The
team
is
expected
to
make
an
official
announcement
with
the
complete
details
of
the
cast
and
crew
of
Bilal,
very
soon.
