Marykkundru Kunjadu
Dileep had been an exceptional whenever he played some characters which were much different from the regulars. Like his characters in `Chandhupottu' or `Kunjikoonan', Dileep is once again getting into a similar mould of a character with the new movie `Marykkundru Kunjadu' (Mary has a little lamb) planned for this Christmas. Scripted by Benny P Nayarambalam, the movie is directed by hit maker Shafi.
The young star will play the role of Solomon in the movie, who is known by the nickname `Kunjaadu' (Lamb). Set in a remote hilly village where the majority are Christians, Solomon is the son of the local priest and is brought up in a similar fashion as a simple soul. He is a very silent personality, who fears everything around him, and hence the name `Kunjaadu'.
The movie will have two Mary-s in its character list. The first is Mary, the mother of Solomon. The other Mary is played by Bhavana, who is the only daughter of a rich landlord Ittichan. She is in love with Solomon right from their childhood days. But Ittichan doesn't like the relationship as he has a sober lover story to tell. That is about his old relation with Solomon's mother Mary, which never got fulfilled. But with the arrival of a strong man with a harsh look into the company of Solomon, our silent soul changes gears suddenly and starts to makes a towering presence in the village.
`Marykkundru Kunjadu' produced by Vaisakha Cinema, will have lyrics by Anil Panachooran, while Berny-Ignatius set the tunes. Cinematographed is by Shyam Dutt, the movie is presently into its final post production stage. The movie is slated for a release, this December.
