Mammootty,
the
megastar
of
Malayalam
cinema
will
next
be
seen
in
the
gangster
drama
Bheeshma
Parvam.
The
project,
which
is
directed
by
the
renowned
cinematographer
and
filmmaker
Amal
Neerad,
is
now
nearing
the
final
stage
of
its
shooting.
As
per
the
reports,
the
makers
have
now
made
a
major
decision
regarding
the
release
of
the
Mammootty
starrer.
If
the
latest
reports
are
to
be
believed,
Bheeshma
Parvam
has
been
slated
to
hit
the
screens
as
a
Christmas
special
release
of
2021.
The
sources
suggest
that
the
makers
are
eyeing
a
theatrical
release
for
the
Amal
Neerad
directorial.
The
team
reportedly
made
this
decision,
considering
the
excellent
box
office
performances
of
Mammootty's
films
that
hit
theatres
in
2021,
before
the
second
wave
of
the
pandemic.
To
the
unversed,
earlier
it
was
speculated
that
Bheeshma
Parvam
is
being
made
a
direct-to-OTT
film.
It
was
rumoured
that
the
Mammootty
starrer
is
being
made
as
the
first
Malayalam
production
of
Netflix.
However,
the
makers
have
not
reacted
to
any
of
these
speculations,
yet.
As
reported
earlier,
Mammootty
is
playing
the
character
of
Bheeshma
Vardhan,
who
was
a
dreaded
gangster
in
the
1980s,
in
Bheeshma
Parvam.
He
is
known
as
Bheeshma
or
Bhaiyya
among
the
people
who
share
a
close
bond
with
him.
If
the
reports
are
to
be
believed,
the
Amal
Neerad
directorial
depicts
a
new
chapter
in
the
life
of
Bheeshma.
Bheeshma
Parvam
marks
Mammootty's
third
collaboration
with
director
Amal
Neerad,
after
Big
B
and
Bilal.
The
Mammootty
starrer
will
feature
a
stellar
star
cast
including
senior
actress
Nadia
Moidu,
Soubin
Shahir,
Telugu
actress
Anasuya
Bharadwaj,
Lena,
Srinath
Bhasi,
Shine
Tom
Chacko,
Maala
Parvathy,
Veena
Nandakumar,
and
so
on
in
the
other
pivotal
roles.
Sushin
Shyam
has
composed
the
songs
and
original
score
for
the
project.
