Producer Suresh Kumar and Mohanlal share an excellent rapport.

The duo had combined on five occasions earlier to render hits. Now they come together for the sixth time for Mahasamudhram.

‘Actually, Mohanlal and I had selected this name for another film but we couldn’t find a good story. One day Mohanlal himself had called me up over the phone and told me about this story. That was how Mahasamudhram began,’ Suresh Kumar said.

Mohanlal plays a fisherman in the movie with Laila acting opposite him.

With some poor box office performances, Mohanlal badly needs a hit.

Even his recent Christmas release Tanmatra directed by Blessy is reportedly not doing a brisk business.

Let’s hope Mahasamudhram proves lucky for Mohanlal.
