Dileep is to start his next film with Sathyan Anthikkad by the end of January. The film which was scheduled to start at an earlier date was postponed due to the non completion of scripts. Dileep will join the film after completing his film with Johny Antony titled as Inspector Garud.

The Sathyan film is planned as a Vishu offering for Dileep. Dileep seems to be in much tension following the low initial collections of his latest film 'Chakkaramuthu'. The film by his mentor Lohithadas was expected to become a big hit and to bring much laurels to the actor. Now the climax of the film has been changed from last week to make it more appealing to the family audience.

Dileep is in the desperate look out for a big hit as he has got none this year. Every film released by the star this year were average hits.
