Lal Jose debuted into films way back in 1994, with the super hit Mammootty film 'Oru Maravathoor Kanavu'.

Thereafter the director had created a number of bumper hits including 'Meesa Madhavan’ and ‘Chandupottu’, which catapulted Dileep to super stardom.

Even his latest film with Sreenivasan 'Arabikkatha' is also acclaimed as a big hit. Within this short span of time Lal Jose has earned for himself a name for being a meticulous director who can handle any genre with equal ease.

The only thing that was to happen , and was expected for quite a long time was his union with Super star Mohanlal, who can himself mould into any kind of roles the directors expect of him. And now, here is the big news.

The long cherished dream of Malayalee film buffs is soon to materialize with Lal Jose starting his work on a new project with Mohanlal.

The film which will be produced by Bhagyachithra, is titled as 'Cousin' Dr.Ibal Kuttipuram, one of the favorite script writers of the director will pen the scripts for this movie which will be the most important project of Lal in 2008.
