Nice to see pakistanis getting starting in Malluwood. I hope he knows how to say the name of the movie Mazhavillinnattamvare. lol
Pakistani fast bowler Mohammed Asif will make his film debut with a Malayalam film, directed by reknowned lyricist Kaithapram Damodaran Namboodiri.
Shooting of the movie, titled Mazhavillinnattamvare (till the tip of the rainbow) is scheduled to begin in North Kerala in September.
The movie is also the directorial debut of Kaithapram, who has penned hundreds of songs, winning several national and
state awards.
“Asif is now busy playing cricket in England. He will be free by September to begin shooting in Kannur in north
Kerala,” Kaithapram told PTI.
“The film starts with Asif coming to a cricket camp in Kannur as a coach. When he travels from Lahore to Kerala, he has a personal mission too. The film will progress through his journey to his goal”, Kaithapram said.
Besides direction, the story is also by Kaithpram, who will be doing the script and lyrics as well.
There would be five songs and a ghazal, mixing of which will be done in a theatre in London. The songs would be rendered by top Indian singers like K J Yesudas, Udit Narayan, Sankar Mahadevan, K S Chitra, Deepankuran and Shreya Ghoshal.
The film is being produced by a Sharjah-based entrepreneur M Mukundan, who hails from Kannur, under the banner of ‘Valluvankadavu Recreations’.
Indians are inventing unique ways of insulting pakistanis- by offering them roles in madrasi movies, lol.....but jokes apart, I think its a good sign. Pakistanis will get access to better cinema rather than karan johar crap.
well he is a pretty jaahil chap and has horrible judgment which he has demonstrated more than once. so certainly sounds like the kind of thing he would do.
you've got to wonder why the PCB can't put some mentors, etc around young guys/stars like Asif/Amir to teach them the ways of the world and to keep them on the right path. look at Aamer now. the kid is already a superstar. the PCB should attach an intelligent, sensible person with him to be his mentor so that he doesn't get into the kinds of things that Asif seems to find himself in over and over again.
