Close on the heels of his success in Naran released this Onam, Mohanlal is now playing a lorry driver Viji Thampi's Kanal (burning coal).

On the movie Viji Thampi says, 'the bamboo cultivation season lasts for six months in Chitaoyikal village. The village then sees the visit of Balaraman the lorry driver who is very tough and a man of few words.

An unsavory past makes him a man with no tender feelings. A girl in the village manages to break the ice with the lorry driver but a turn of events makes him more violent.'

Padmapriya is the leading lady.Suresh Babu writes the screenplay.

For Mohanlal, this season has been pretty good. He has won both critical and commercial success.

Naran is the leader of the pack among the Onam releases. And he has also managed to win the coveted Thakur role in the re-created Sholay in Hindi.

It seems there is no stopping for him.
