Mammootty,
the
megastar
is
all
set
to
play
the
Kerala
Chief
Minister
in
the
upcoming
political
thriller
One.
As
per
the
latest
reports,
the
Mammootty
starrer
has
been
slated
to
hit
the
theatres
in
February
2021.
In
that
case,
One
might
emerge
as
the
first
Malayalam
film
to
hit
the
theatres
post
lockdown.
As
per
the
latest
reports,
the
makers
are
yet
to
finalise
the
release
date
of
the
Mammootty
starrer.
But
the
sources
have
confirmed
that
the
team
is
planning
to
release
One
in
February.
However,
the
release
date
will
be
finalised
only
after
the
team
analyses
how
the
public
reacts
to
the
theatre
reopening
post
lockdown,
and
the
future
of
the
films
that
hit
the
theatres
in
Kerala
for
Pongal.
If
things
go
as
planned,
Mammootty's
One
will
resume
the
theatrical
releases
of
the
Malayalam
films.
Following
the
release
of
the
Mammootty
starrer,
around
11
films
are
slated
to
hit
the
theatres.
Well,
we
really
hope
things
proceed
on
a
positive
note,
as
cinema
is
one
of
the
biggest
industries
we
have.
Coming
to
One,
the
project
marks
the
megastar's
first
collaboration
with
the

The
political
thriller
around
the
clash
of
different
political
ideologies
and
the
duties
of
an
ideal

under
a
