Kavi Uddheshichathu, which has Asif Ali, Biju Menon and Narain in the lead roles is all set to hit the theatres. Reportedly, the film directed by Thomas Liju Thomas, would hit the theatres on October 8, 2016 as a Pooja release. The trailer of the film was released yesterday (September 29, 2016). It was actor Mammootty, who officially launched the trailer of the film, through his Facebook page.

Mammootty wished the entire team of Kavi Uddheshichathu all the very best and he also stated that the film would be releasing along with Thoppil Joppan. Take a look the Facebook post of the actor.

From the trailer of the film, it seems like Kavi Uddheshichathu is an out-and-out entertainer. The main three characters of the film have been developed with some humorous tone. Biju Menon is once again in full form and it could be evidently seen from the trailer.
Asif Ali appears in the role of Kavalam Biju whereas Narain portrays the role of Vattaparambil Bosco. Biju Menon would be seen in the role of Minnal Simon. The film is expected to be a big comeback of actor Narain, after a brief break.
Biju Menon and Asif Ali were previously seen in the film Anuraga Karikkin Vellam, which turned out to be a big hit. Now, once again, they would be seen together in this film and it seems like the chemistry between them would work out well once again. Anju Kurien does the female lead role in the film.

Sumesh Krishnan to fight it out with Sreesanth...

The news about cricketer Sreesanth making his Mollywood debut in Team 5, with an ensemble cast of Pearle Maaney, Nikki Galrani and Makarand Deshpande has been hogging the limelight. The latest addition to the cast is Sumesh Krishnan, who has done projects with biggies such as Vijay, Ajith and Akshay Kumar in Thupakki, Arrambam and Special 26, respectively, is playing a prominent role in the film.
Sumesh says, "I play Alby, who is the leader of a rival gang of the protagonist. Alby is someone who has his own set of followers and is a character with negative shades." So when there is a bike movie, there would be a lot of pulsating stunts? "Though we did not have much time to train for the stunts, we could do the basic things, and it was a very interesting experience. Professional bikers in the team helped me perform some daredevil acts with finesse,"he says.

Olappeeppi Movie Review...

Review: Krish Kaimal’s debut film Olappeeppi delves on a subject that has been discussed through our theatre and films, time and again - plight of the upper caste members of the society who lost their lands and wealth as a result of land reforms. It explores the predicaments through the life of a little boy, who grows up amid poverty with his grand mom, and how societal forces shape him into a rebel, fighter and a winner, though much later. However, what it lacks is something that a film that handles a much-known and experimented subject should have taken into account – something new to offer the audience other than what they have already seen.

Yes, it does have elements that make you sit through the length and reflect on. Some good performances from actors like Kanchana (muthassi) and Devaprayag (Unni), who played the lead roles in the movie as the grandma and grandson. How the shadows of the past engulf Unni can be related to and the sequences are quite poignant. It has frames that take you back to childhood in villages, beautiful imageries of age-old, traditional games and innocence that form the essence of a nostalgic village tale. There are also a couple of scenes in which your heart goes out to the characters and wish someone helped them better. All that said, these are nothing we haven’t seen already, be it through yesteryear films, television series or stories. At a time when the new brigade in Mollywood is vying to give the audience something new, freshness isn’t something the makers should have taken lightly.

Though the film is promoted as a movie that discusses the impact of land reforms, it mostly comes across as the tale of a man who escaped the clutches of people whom he rebelled against, only to come back to the place as a successful personality. You get to see how karma gets back to his tormentors. While watching something of the sort gives you satisfaction, it also somewhere reduces the movie to a ‘personal’ or ‘autobiographical’ tale, rather than a film with a larger social issue as a backbone.

Watch Olappeeppi to spend time with an adorable muthassi and her loving grandson, and for its nostalgic flashback sequences.
