Mammootty,
the
megastar
of
Malayalam
cinema
will
be
next
seen
in
One,
the
upcoming
political
thriller.
Recently
it
was
rumoured
that
the
movie,
which
is
directed
by
Santhosh
Viswanath
will
get
a
digital
release
soon,
amidst
the
lockdown.
However,
the
makers
of
the
Mammootty
starrer
have
now
put
an
end
to
the
rumours.
Recently,
the
makers
of
One
confirmed
that
the
movie
is
not
getting
a
digital
release.
According
to
the
team,
the
Mammootty
starrer
is
a
very
ambitious
project
for
them
and
has
the
potential
to
win
over
both
the
audiences
and
critics.
Thus,
the
direct
digital
release
is
not
even
an
option
for
the
makers
of
One,
who
are
planning
a
grand
theatrical
release
for
the
project
once
the
lockdown
ends.
The
reports
came
out
as
a
great
relief
for
both
the
Mammootty
fans
and
cine-goers,
who
are
totally
excited
to
watch
the
megastar
in
the
role
of
the
Kerala
Cheif
Minister
on
the
silver
screen.
However,
the
team
is
in
no
hurry
to
release
the
political
thriller
and
will
finalise
the
release
date
only
after
the
lockdown
ends.
To
the
uninitiated,
One
will
mark
Mammootty's
first
collaboration
with
the
young
filmmaker
Santhosh
Viswanath
and
National
award-winning
scriptwriters
Bobby-Sanjay.
It
is
the
second
directorial
outing
of
Santhosh
Viswanath,
who
made
his
directorial
debut
with
the
highly
acclaimed
spoof
comedy
movie
Chirakondinja
Kinavukal,
which
featured
Kunchacko
Boban
and
Rima
Kallingal
in
the
lead
roles.
Coming
back
to
One,
the
Mammootty
starrer
features
an
extensive
star
cast
including
Joju
George,
Murali
Gopy,
Sreenivasan,
Balachandra
Menon,
Ranjith,
Mamukoya,
Salim
Kumar,
Suresh
Krishna,
Shankar
Ramakrishnan,
Sudev
Nair,
Vishnu
Unnikrishnan,
Nimisha
Sajayan,
Gayathri
Arun,
debutante
Ishaani
Krishna,
and
so
on.
The
project
is
produced
by
Sreelakshmi
R,
under
the
banner
Ichais
Productions.
