Neelathamara Preview

Neelathamara is one of the most expected malayalam movie of 2009. The movie is a remake of Yusuf Ali Kechery's Neelathamara which was released in 1979. Director Lal Jose is behind this venture and the script is handled by M T Vasudevan Nair. M T Vasudevan Nair is once again restructuring the scripts of the hits of the eighties ‘Neelathamara’ which featured Ravikumar, Ambika and Sathar, to suit to the changing times.

While debutante Archana will come up as Kunjimalu, the hapless girl around whom the tale is woven, Rima Kallingal plays the role of Sharath Kochammini and Samvrutha Sunil, that of the new bride who comes into the house. Sreedevi is Maalu amma Kailash will appear as Haridas, the protagonist of the movie while. Suresh Nair, who is Ambika’s brother, plays the villain, the role that Sathar played in the original.

The story of the original movie revolved round happenings in a matter of six months. But for the remake, the film begins in 2009, turns to the happenings of 1979 before coming back to the present for an epilogue.

Director Lal Jose who is for the first time teaming up with M.T. is taking every measures to convert the movie into a master piece ‘I was fascinated by the script. It's a movie where love and lust have been addressed without prejudices, which obviously means that it came before the times when pseudo-morality became part of Malayalam cinema’ observes Lal Jose. The movie was shot at various locations at Pattambi, Malamakkavu, Chamravattom, Kuttipuram and Thavanur.

Produced by Menaka Suresh under the banner of Revathi Kalamandir, the remake has two songs and two keertanas. Vidyasagar has tuned the songs penned by Vayalar Sarath Chandra Varma.
