Vikram's Malayalam comeback

Get your low down on what's happening in the Malayalam film industry right here!

After Kamal Haasan, it is the turn of another National Award winning actor from Tamil to make his appearance in Malayalam with Rosshan Andrrews's new movie.

"We are working on the details right now and are planning to release the film next year," Andrrews says.

Actually, this is a comeback of sorts for the actor. Vikram has done quite a few roles in Malayalam films like Dhruvam, Mafia and Sainyam before he became a sensation in Tamil. The actor has always been vocal about his love for Malayalam films and has been looking forward to make his comeback in a nice role.

Vikram has a couple of releases lined up in Tamil before he starts shooting for his Malayalam film. In the meantime, Rosshan will start directing the Mohanlal starrer, Casanova, soon.

Navya Nair is ready for a new role

Actor Navya Nair, who stole the hearts of millions with films like Nandanam, is all set to play a new role off screen.

Come November, Navya and husband Santhosh Menon will become proud parents.

Meanwhile, the actor recently completed the shooting of Sadgamaya, directed by Harikumar.

Sadgamaya talks about the relationship between a patient and an eccentric but brilliant psychiatrist. Navya plays the patient while Suresh Gopi is doing the role of the psychiatrist.

Mohanlal, Jayaram and Dileep in China Town

This seems to be a great time for multi-starrers in Malayalam and the latest announcement is that of China Town, directed by Rafi-Mecartin.

The film, a laugh riot in true Rafi-Mecartin pattern, will have Mohanlal, Jayaram and Dileep in the lead roles.

Meanwhile there are few other films in the pipeline, with more than one big star in the lead. Joshiy's Christian Brothers with Mohanlal, Suresh Gopi and Dileep is nearing completion.

Mammootty and Prithviraj had come together recently in Pokkiri Raja and will start shooting for The King and the Commissioner next.
