Classmates was the biggest hit of last season. So when Lal Jose, the director of Classmates is getting a new film started, there is an all round anticipation.

Lal Jose’s new film is Arabikatha.

Lal Jose is a sturdy director who makes movie that are a good mix and offer wholesome entertainment to the paying public.

Not for him the dependence on high-paid stars and not for him needless masala ingredients.

Sticking to this formula, he has cast the ever-dependable Sreenivasan as the hero. Sreenivasan as the hero would be very interesting.

Even quainter is the fact that a Chinese lass is playing the heroine. Her name is given as Chang Chu Min.

Now this really makes things all the more attractive. Jayasurya, Indrajit, Samvrutha and Jagathy Sreekumar are also in the cast.
