Mammootty,
the
megastar
of
Malayalam
cinema
is
once
again
playing
the
iconic
character
Sethurama
Iyer
in
the
much-awaited
fifth
installment
of
the
CBI
Series.
The
project,
which
has
been
titled
CBI
5
The
Brain,
is
getting
a
grand
theatrical
release
on
May
1,
Sunday.
In
the
CBI
5
The
Brain
press
meet,
Mammootty
finally
opened
up
about
CBI
6,
the
sixth
installment
of
the
franchise.
During
the
interaction
with
media
representatives,
the
megastar
revealed
that
he
has
been
asking
director
K
Madhu
and
writer
SN
Swamy
to
give
Sethurama
Iyer
a
break
from
the
murder
cases.
Mammootty
stated
that
he
wants
the
character
to
investigate
some
other
form
of
crime
like
a
massive
robbery
case.
The
veteran
actor
added
that
he
is
hoping
that
it
will
happen
at
least
in
CBI
6.
Mammootty
subtle
hint
towards
the
possibilities
of
CBI
Part
6
left
the
media
representatives
totally
excited,
and
they
quizzed
the
megastar
about
the
same.
However,
the
National
award-winning
actor
made
it
clear
that
he
just
expressed
his
wish,
and
confirmed
that
the
team
hasn't
even
thought
about
a
sixth
installment,
so
far.
However,
the
loyal
followers
of
the
CBI
franchise
and
Mammootty
fans
have
already
started
hoping
for
a
sixth
installment
from
the
series.
The
CBI
Series
has
already
made
multiple
records
by
emerging
as
the
biggest
ever
movie
franchise
ever
made
in
the
history
of
Indian
cinema.
Interestingly,
all
the
installments
of
the
franchise
had
the
same
director,
writer,
and
leading
man.
Coming
to
CBI
5
The
Brain,
the
highly
anticipated
project
will
have
the
original
star
cast
of
the
series,
including
Mammootty,
Jagathy
Sreekumar,
Mukesh,
and

reprising
their
respective
characters.
Along
