By SAMPURNThursday, August 26, 2010
August 26, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Director Rajiv Nath has been lucky once again to sign the megastar Mohanlal for his new Malayalam movie titled ‘Onnam Sir’. The director had earlier worked with Mohanlal in his 2008 movie ‘Pakal Nakshatrangal’, which failed commercially but was critically acclaimed.
The story of ‘Onnam Sir’ is based on a short story titled ‘Pothychoru’ written by Karur Neelakanta Pillai. K B Venu will be writing the script for the film and it will be produced by Chaaya films.
Mohanlal will be playing a school teacher in this film. The school principal is usually addressed by the term ‘Onnam Sir’. The director is likely to start shooting for this low budget movie from the second week of this September.
In the earlier film of Rajiv Nath, Mohanlal played the role of a filmmaker, who lives life on his own principles. Mohanlal worked with Rajiv Nath in another Malayalam film titled Kaveri in 1986, which also starred Malayalam superstar Mammootty.
Rajiv Nath also directed a Hindi movie titled Anubhav in 2009, which starred actors like Jackie Shroff, Gul Panag, Sanjay Suri, Anoop Menon, Mita Vasisht, Rajendranath Zutshi and Shruti Seth.
Hope this time Rajiv Nath enjoys commercial success as well.
