Mammootty on star salaries!

In an interview to a Malayalam film magazine, Megastar Mammootty has said that superstar's salaries are not responsible for the rise in cost of production of films.

Mammootty stressed: "The increase in cost of production in star films is in no way connected to star salaries. Though I fully endorse the producers association's resolution that cost of films should be pegged around Rs 3.50 Crore, the rise in cost is due to the subject."

The star points out that he worked for Pazhassi Raja at a reasonable salary, yet the cost of production shot up due to the subject which was a period drama.

Mammooka asserted: "Let me make it clear just because of my salary, the cost of my films has not gone up. I believe cost of production can be curtailed if proper script and planning is made before the shoot and the number of days for shoot and the film rolls to be used is worked out in a professional manner."

Mammootty said that he had mentioned this stature in a funny way to Kamal when they had met some time back.

Chattambinadu is super hit & ividam swargamanu is a flop...

Chattambinaadu - is festival fiesta :

For this Christmas, once again you have a movie plotted at a remote Tamil Nadu border, with all that colorful camera friendly costume worn dumb village people, two strong families at war for more than two decades, the entry of the hero to settle the war with some mysterious personal interests, the loud mouthed villain with that big moustache and another hundreds of regular features that you come across in almost all the hits of decade. Yes, this is an overall idea of 'Chattambinaadu'- the new Mammootty movie in theatres, strictly made on the formula stuff with that very old wine story in another new bottle. What really makes a difference is the megastar adorning another sharply different look and slang for his protagonist character, who amuse, confuse and impress the viewers with dialogues that are more Kannada than Malayalam.

The village in the centre of activity is Chembattunadu, which gradually was rechristened as Chattambinaadu following the arrival and settlement of chattambis (goons) to the village to sort out the fight between the two strong wealthy families of the village, that is continuing for more than two decades. The movie opens in a high with the story being narrated in the viewpoint of a shooting crew of popular programme 'Veritta Kazhchakal'. The goons of the wealthy families Mallanchira and Kattapalli have controlled the village for decades. Veerendra Mallaya, a Kannadiga wealthy man and a daredevil with 31 criminal cases after him, speaking a Malayalam with a thick Kananda slang arrives to the village to buy a mansion owned by Mallachira Chandramohan (Manoj K Jayan). From the day one he starts his war against Kattapilli Nagendran (Siddhique) and the viewers are told that Mallaya has a mysterious past associated with the same village folk, that has forced
him to come to the village. Amidst confusions, the mysteries unveil with enjoyable sidetracks by local chattambies, Makri Goplan and Dasamoolam Damu played by Salimkumar and Suraj respectively.

In a potpourri of recent hits from Rajamanickayam, to Madambi and Mayavi, the racy narratives and fast cuts has managed to hold the movie without any big harm atleast till interval. But the final hour becomes increasingly predictable, with not much fresh surprises in store. But it is the one-man show of Mammootty, the megastar who really shows how he can hold a movie with a regular lame storyline with his charismatic performances. Even with a regular singular white pajama- kurtha dress code, he is eminently handsome throughout, with his acting credentials once again coming to the fore. Watch out for the two sentimental scenes where he manages to impress everyone, even with heavy Kannada dialogues. Vinu Mohan as his trusted aide Murugan, is in another role that the youngster can treasure. Lakshmi Rai and Mythili manages through the characters they are in while others from Vijayaraghavan, Manoj K Jayan, Siddhique, Janardhanan and Co are all in their
regular roles.

The technical side of the movie is good, with every department doing their best to maintain the quality of a potential hit. Manoj Pillai's camera, and V Sajan's editing are brilliant and the makers has managed to keep the interest going for the entire length of two hours and five minutes. Alex Paul' songs have good beats but won't stay in our minds for long. The title song written by Murugan Kattakkada and sung by C J Kuttappan is the best among the three featured in the movie.

If you are a fan of Mammootty, you are sure to lap up Chattambinaadu, as it offers everything for the fans to cherish. And for others, if you had been with the likes of cross- border movies; this is another chance for reminiscence. If you can keep your brains at home, don't think for much logic and enjoy a free run for two hours.

Palery opens in more screens


Renjith's latest movie on theaters 'Palery Maanikyam:Oru Pathirakolapathinte Katha' had just an above average opening last week, though the movie was opined to be a brilliantly done work. The movie even made to less than 45 release centers, which is half the numbers when compared to any other movies released recently from the Megastar Mammootty.

Anyhow, the movie makers have realized that there is a big dearth in proper publicity and have started increasingly promoting the movie through other media.

The movie made to another fifteen centers this week, with good advertisement support. The producers believe this move, though a little late, will help the movie to translate the good opinion generated, into box office collections.

As per the latest reports, among the last week releases, V K Prakash's hilarious comedy caper, 'Gulumal-The Escape' is having the safest run at the box office, with a consistent sixty percent collections in the opening week.

Another ‘M’ fight for this Xmas

In Mollywood, it is instrumental that when one superstar comes up with a release, the other also follow suit with another on the same weekend. Every filmi season in Kerala usually witness the clashes between Mammootty and Mohanlal films, which had been continuing for two decades. And this Christmas is also not much different. The Mammootty movie to grace the theatres will be 'Chattambinaadu' directed by Shafi, which will take on Mohanlal's 'Ivide Swargam Aanu' .While the former will get to theatres on Christmas eve, the Lal film will make a release on the Christmas day.

The other speciality of these two films are that they are produced by the star loyalists and will be distributed by the superstar's own production houses like "Playhouse" and "Max Lab" entertainments. The other two movies that were earlier planning to set a fight with the superstar biggies were 'Happy Husbands' and 'Bodyguard', which stands shifted to further dates, as per the latest informations.

I wont be able to do a role like that of 'Pazhassi Raja': Mohanlal

Mohanlal admitted that he will not be able to do justice to a role like that of 'Pazhassi Raja'.

The actor was interacting with an FM radio station when he made this revelation. He said it would be just foolhardiness to hope to do roles like the ones in 'Vadakkan Veeragatha' or 'Pazhassi Raja'. Even if he did, they wouldn't be that good either, he added.

He also said that he has done several films that he has regretted about later.

PaleriManikyam Review by sify...Rating:Excellent

Every once in a while comes a film that truly shakes you up and make you realize about the power of well-narrated stories in doing so. Director Ranjith's Paleri Manikyam: Oru Pathira Kolapathakathinte Kadha is such a film, which is exceptionally brilliant, intelligently executed and thrilling to the core.

Based on writer T.P.Rajeevan's book, the film is an investigative story, told in a refreshingly different way. Haridas (Mammootty), a private detective based in Delhi and his friend Sarayu (Gowri Munjal), comes to a sleepy north Malabar village called Paleri to unveil the mystery behind the murder of a beautiful woman named Manickam (Maithily), which happened more than five decades back.

It is through the eyes of Haridas that the truth behind the incidents that led to the shocking murder of Manickam comes out at an interesting pace. Manickam had died just a couple of days after her marriage to Pokkan, who was the good for nothing son of Cheeru (Swetha Menon). Soon, all the fingers start pointing to Murikkumkunnath Ahmed Haji (Mammootty, in a spectacular appearance), the rich and brash landlord, who virtually ruled the area according to his whim.

Ahmed Haji feared none and lived life strictly on his own terms. He slept with the women he set his eyes on, brutally assaulted the poor peasants who worked for him and had scant regard for the law. But for Haridas, there were still some missing links that finally proved to be quite startling and crucial. We won't reveal further and spoil the fun because the unravelling of the mystery is so engaging!
It is with absolute awe that one would come out of the theatres, especially for Ranjith, who has made perhaps one of the finest films in Malayalam history, based on Rajeevan's brilliant novel. There are flaws and scope for further improvement for sure, but the writer-director's ability to handle such an intricate tale needs to be appreciated wholeheartedly.

With a spectacular performance that can leave you spellbound, Mammootty underlines why he is easily regarded among the best actors in the country. His charisma, screen presence and style give an altogether different meaning to the characters and his portrayal of Ahmed Haji will remain as one of the best to have happened in Malayalam films, ever.

Swetha Menon's scintillating performance as Cheeru is another highlight of Paleri Manickam. In her role, she is at her sensuous best during her younger days and looks genuine as an aged and suffering woman, years later.

But the performances of the other two leading ladies, Maithily and Gowri Munjal, are nothing to rave about. No wonder, the focus is never really on them and as a result, it hasn't affected the film much.

The other key factor in the film's appeal could be the amateur artists who have played the supporting roles amazingly well. Almost all of them have made the film look authentic. The rest of cast including Sreenivasan, Siddique and T Damodaran among others have done their roles quite well.

The technical aspects about the film too need a mention here for the fine work that has gone into it. Here is an extra round of applause for Manoj Pillai's camera that does a brilliant job and the film's music, by Sharath and Bijibal, which syncs perfectly with the mood.

Paleri Manikyam: Oru Pathira Kolapathakathinte Kadha is one film that will haunt you days after you've left the theatres. It's a gem that comes not too often and the least you can do to appreciate it is to watch it at the cinemas, at the earliest!

Verdict: Excellent

Ashique Abu plans his next

Ashique Abu had teamed up with Mammootty to render Daddy cool before and it was an average hit. The director was waiting for the dates of Mammootty for his next flick, and as per the latest update he got the dates of Mega star.
The film which will be produced by Valiaveetil International will start its shooting in a couple of month's time.This untitled movie is expected to have some resemblance with a Hollywood flick

Paleri manikyam First report

Renjiths "Paleri Manikyam Oru Pathira Kolapathakathinte Katha" is a different cinema. It has Suspense, Drama, life and Mammootty in three different roles. Another good effort from Renjith, after his creative Production Kerala Cafe. An investigative story visualized in a very different perspective.

The story telling, the characters and the backgrounds are new to Malayalam especially in an investigative suspense thriller. The investigation of Manikyam's murder is the major storyline. The storyline goes like this: Haridas, a private detective, is investigating the murder of a young woman, Manikyam, which happened over 50 years back. But it is different.

Hats off to Mammootty. He is critically outstanding by his performance. All actors specially Sreenivasan, siddique, shwetha menon and all new faces are perfectly rendered to the craftsmanship of Director Renjith.

The film is based on T.P. Rajeevan's novel, by the same name, which was serialised in a Mathrubhumi weekly. Director Renjith was fascinated by the novel's theme, which is based on a true incident that happened shortly before the first ministry of Kerala was sworn in.

Cinematography by Manoj Pillai and Music by Sharreth is in tune with the story.

Produced by A.V. Anoop & Subair under the banner of AVA Productions and Varnachithra Big Screen. PMOPK will be a good treat to serious movie lovers.

Congratulations to the entire crew.

Shreya Sharan to play the female lead in 'Pokkiri Raja'

Ravishing actress Shreya Sharan who had rocked Tamil filmdom with her sizzler act, is all set to do a film in Mollywood now.

She might very well be the heroine in 'Pokkiri Raja', to be directed by debutante Vaishakh.

'Pokkiri Raja' marks the coming together of Mammootty and Prithviraj. Shreya, who was apparently impressed by the script had given the nod to the film.

Shreya had had enough and more experience of being cast opposite Super Stars, like Rajnikanth, Vikram, Sarath Kumar and Vijay.

Though Meera Jasmine was earlier considered for the role, Shreya has finally bagged the much coveted role. With Shreya joining the cast of 'Pokkiri Raja', Vaishakh's film turns out to be one of the most eagerly anticipated films next year.

SHRIYA WITH MAMMOOTTY

Shriya Saran has a mixed bag. Her recent English film 'Cooking with Stella' received good reviews and was screened at the Toronto Film Festival. She was last seen in Susi Ganesan's Kanthaswamy with Vikram where her skin show was more talked about than the film.

Navya to play Mammootty's wife

Before leaving the filmdom with her marriage, young actress Navya Nair is all set to fulfill one of the biggest dream of her life.

Ten films for this December

The month of December will be a heavily congested season for film releases in Mollywood. At least ten films including some from the biggies are planning to make a try at the Box Office, this month.

This weekend, that is on third and fourth of December, five films are planning to be in the fray. The major movie in the offering will be Renjith's 'Palery Maanikyam'-Oru Pathira Kolapathainte Katha' featuring Mammootty in triple roles. The other films for the weekend will include Jayaram's 'My Big Father', Namitha-Bala-Kalabhavan Mani's 'Black Stallion' directed by Pramod -Pappan, VK Prakash's Jayasuriya –Kunchacko Boban movie, 'Gulumal-The Escape' and Shankar Panikkar's 'Keralotsavam 2009'.

The other films planned for this December will include Dileep's Siddhique movie 'Bodyguard', Mohanlal's 'Ivide Swargamaanu' and Mammootty's 'Chattambinaadu'. The last two biggies are charted for this Christmas season, to fight out with Saji Surendran's multistarrer 'Happy Husbands'.

Mammootty is an amazing actor: Ranjith

Director Ranjith, whose 'Palery Manickyam' is all ready for a December release, is full of praise for his lead actor Mammootty.

Mammootty is always on the lookout for doing something new. And he doesn't let go of any opportunity that offers him some scope as an actor. That is how he became a part of this project called 'Palery Manickyam', Ranjith said.

Mammootty was very excited to be working with fresh faces. As much as he works on projects that are intended to satisfy his fans, he is open to fresh ideas and novel plans, Ranjith added.

Mammooty plays a crime investigator and Muslim landlord in the 1950's in 'Palery Manickyam'.

ബോക്‌സ് ഓഫീസില്‍ പുതുചരിത്രം രചിയ്ക്കുന്ന പഴശ്ശിരാജ മലയാള സിനിമയ്ക്ക് പുതിയ വിപണന സാധ്യതകള്‍ തുറക്കുന്നു മോളിവുഡിലെ എക്കാലത്തെയും കൂറ്റന്‍ ബജറ്റായ 27 കോടി രൂപ മുടക്കി തിയറ്ററുകളിലെത്തിച്ച പഴശ്ശിരാജ വാങ്ങാന്‍ ഹോളിവുഡ് മൂവി ചാനലായ എച്ച്ബിഒ ഒരുങ്ങുന്നുവെന്നാണ് ഏറ്റവും പുതിയ വാര്‍ത്ത.

ഇത് സംബന്ധിച്ച് നേരത്തെ റിപ്പോര്‍ട്ടുകളുണ്ടായിരുന്നെങ്കിലും ചലച്ചിത്ര രംഗത്തെ പ്രമുഖരായ ചിലര്‍ തന്നെയാണ് ഇക്കാര്യം ഇപ്പോള്‍ സ്ഥിരീകരിച്ചിരിയ്ക്കുന്നത്. മലയാളത്തിലെ ഒരു പ്രമുഖ വാരികയ്ക്ക് നല്‍കിയ അഭിമുഖത്തില്‍ സംവിധായകന്‍ അന്‍വര്‍ റഷീദാണ് പഴശ്ശിരാജ വാങ്ങാന്‍ എച്ച്ബിഒ ചാനല്‍ രംഗത്തുണ്ടെന്ന കാര്യം വെളിപ്പെടുത്തിയത്.

മലയാള സിനിമകളുടെ നിര്‍മാണ ചെലവ് മൂന്നരക്കോടിയില്‍ ഒതുക്കണമെന്ന നിര്‍മാതക്കളുടെ സംഘടനയുടെ നിര്‍ദ്ദേശത്തെ പരാമര്‍ശിയ്ക്കുമ്പോഴാണ് പഴശ്ശിരാജയിലൂടെ മലയാള സിനിമയിലെത്തിയ പുതിയ ബിസിനസ് സാധ്യതകള്‍ അന്‍വര്‍ ചൂണ്ടിക്കാണിച്ചത്.

"പഴശ്ശിരാജ ചിത്രീകരിയ്ക്കുമ്പോള്‍ അതിന്റെ നിര്‍മാതാവിനും സംവിധായകനും മാത്രമേ ആ പ്രൊജക്ടിനെക്കുറിച്ച് വിശ്വാസമുണ്ടായിരുന്നുള്ളൂ. എന്നാല്‍ ആ സിനിമ പുറത്തുവന്ന് ഹിറ്റായപ്പോള്‍ എല്ലാവരും 'പഴശ്ശിരാജ'യുടെ ആളുകളായി. ആ സിനിമയ്ക്കിപ്പോള്‍ പ്രതീക്ഷിയ്ക്കാത്ത പല ബിസിനസുകളും വന്നു ചേരുന്നുണ്ട്. എച്ച്ബിഒ ചാനലുകാര്‍ സിനിമ ഇഷ്ടപ്പെട്ട് 18 കോടിയ്ക്ക്
സാറ്റലൈറ്റ് അനുമതി വാങ്ങാന്‍ പോകുന്നുവെന്ന് കേള്‍ക്കുന്നു. ഇത്രയും വലിയ തുകയ്ക്ക് എച്ച്ബിഒ സിനിമ സ്വന്തമാക്കാനുണ്ടെങ്കില്‍ മൂന്നരക്കോടിയ്ക്ക് സിനിമ ചെയ്യാവൂ എന്ന് നിബന്ധ വെയ്‌ക്കേണ്ട കാര്യമില്ല- അന്‍വര്‍ റഷീദ് പറഞ്ഞു.

അതേ സമയം സിനിമയുടെ നിര്‍മാണ ചെലവിനെ കടത്തിവെട്ടുന്ന തുകയാണ് പഴശ്ശിക്ക് എച്ച്ബിഒ ഓഫര്‍ ചെയ്തതെന്ന് സ്ഥിരീകരിയ്ക്കാത്ത റിപ്പോര്‍ട്ടുകളുണ്ട്. ഡിജിറ്റല്‍ ഓവര്‍സീസ് റൈറ്റില്‍ ഏറ്റവും വലിയ തുക ലഭിച്ച ഗജിനിയ്ക്ക് മേലെയാണ് എച്ച്ബിഒ പഴശ്ശിയ്ക്ക് വിലയിട്ടതെന്ന് ചില മൂവി വെബ്‌സൈറ്റുകള്‍ റിപ്പോര്‍ട്ട് ചെയ്യുന്നു. അമീര്‍ ഖാന്റെ സൂപ്പര്‍ ഹിറ്റ് ബോളിവുഡ്
സിനിമയായ ഗജിനിയ്ക്ക് 22 കോടിയാണ് ഇത്തരത്തിലുള്ള കച്ചവടത്തില്‍ ലഭിച്ചത്.

അതേ സമയം തിയറ്ററുകളിലെത്തി ഒരു മാസം പിന്നിട്ടപ്പോള്‍ കേരളത്തില്‍ നിന്ന് മാത്രം പഴശ്ശിരാജ 12.5 കോടിയിലധികം കളക്ട്് ചെയ്തുവെന്നാണ് റിപ്പോര്‍ട്ടുകള്‍. കേരളത്തില്‍ നിന്ന് ചിത്രം മുടക്കുമുതല്‍ സ്വന്തമാക്കുമെന്നാണ് സിനിമാ പണ്ഡിറ്റുകള്‍ പ്രവചിയ്ക്കുന്നത്. കഴിഞ്ഞ ദിവസം റിലീസ് ചെയ്ത തമിഴ് പതിപ്പിനും ആവേശകരമായ സ്വീകരണമാണ് ലഭിച്ചിരിയ്ക്കുന്നത്.

അതിനിടെ പഴശ്ശിരാജയുടെ ഹോം വീഡിയോ റൈറ്റ് വന്‍ തുകയ്ക്ക് സ്വന്തമാക്കിയതായി മോസര്‍ ബെയര്‍ അധികൃതര്‍ സ്ഥിരീകരിച്ചു. ചിത്രത്തിന്റെ ഡിവിഡി, വിസിഡി, ബ്ലൂ റേ തുടങ്ങിയ ഫോര്‍മാറ്റുകളുടെ അവകാശമാണ് മോസര്‍ ബെയര്‍ വാങ്ങിയത്.

ഇതാദ്യമായാണ് ഒരു മലയാള സിനിമയുടെ ബ്ലൂ റേ അവകാശം വാങ്ങുന്നതെന്ന് മോസര്‍ ബെയര്‍ തലവന്‍ ജി ധനജ്ഞയന്‍ പറഞ്ഞു. 2010ല്‍ ചിത്രത്തിന്റെ വിവിധ വീഡിയോ ഫോര്‍മാറ്റുകള്‍ കമ്പനി വിപണിയിലെത്തിയ്ക്കും.

സിനിമയുടെ പ്രാധാന്യം കണക്കിലെടുത്ത് മലയാളത്തില്‍ ഇതുവരെ നല്‍കിയിട്ടുള്ളതില്‍ വെച്ചേറ്റവും വലിയൊരു തുകയ്ക്കാണ് പഴശ്ശിരാജയുടെ വീഡിയോ റൈറ്റ് വാങ്ങിയതെന്നും മോസര്‍ ബെയര്‍ വെളിപ്പെടുത്തി. പഴശ്ശിരാജയുടെ മലയാളത്തിലെ സാറ്റലൈറ്റ് അവകാശം വന്‍ തുകയ്ക്ക് ഏഷ്യാനെറ്റ് നേരത്തെ സ്വന്തമാക്കിയിരുന്നു.

HBO to buy satellite rights of 'Pazhassi Raja'?

'Pazhassi Raja' seems in no hurry to be out of the news headlines. There are unconfirmed reports that HBO might be buying the satellite rights of the film for exorbitant rates.

Meanwhile Home Video giants Moser Baer have bought the video rights of this block buster film. Insiders claim that for the first time, the blue ray rights of a Malayalam film have also been bought by Moser Baer.

The television rights of the film were earlier acquired by Asianet.

The film meanwhile continues its dream run at the box office. It has also opened to a very encouraging response at the Tamil box office last week.

Top Five Kerala Boxoffice

Pazhassi Raja' - Hariharan's Magnum Opus still maintains its audience pull, to remain in the top of the charts. The other small budgeted movies that were released a couple of weeks ago, fail to attract audiences in metro cities. The top five movies of the week are

Mohanlal - Ividam swargmane1 'Pazhassi Raja'- The movie which was released in 70 centers, gross the thirteen crore in 35 days will celebrate fifty days next week, in 50 plus its release theatres. For those who never predicted a long run for the film, will be apparently surprised by the movie celebrating silver jubilee in more than fifty plus centers. The movie is rightly acknowledged as the evergreen hit malayalam cinema.
Mohanlal - Ividam swargmane
2 'Uthara Swayamvaram'- This Jayasuriya - Roma starrer has picked up from second weak. The movie is now moving over to become an average earner. Debutant directors, Ramakanth Sarju's has created a better first half with plenty of enjoyable laughs. A steamy tearjerker later half did ruin its potential, but the movie will end up as an average earner.
Mohanlal - Ividam swargmane
3.'Swa-Le' - The Dileep - Gopika movie has already become an average hit and is a profit maker. The movie didn't collect as expected, but will end the long drought of a semi-hit. Swale continues 25th day in select theaters in the major cities. The weekends register good collections due to family audiences, in metros.

Mohanlal - Ividam swargmane
4.'Kerala cafe' - The unusual treatment and plot styles of the presence is definitely going to encourage rave reviews. But the third week collection shows a drastic fall. The movie with high-quality performances and visuals registers forty percent collections in its third week.

Mohanlal - Ividam swargmane
5.'Robin hood' - This Pritvi starrer may end up as an average earner, but for its production costs. The movie continues with thirty percent collections in select centers.


Jayaram's movie 'Seethakalayanam' - which had a delayed release, is a dud from the day two. The movie won't help in any way in boosting the audience friendly image of the actor. The audiences, on the other hand seem to have once again given thumbs down sign, to the family hero image of Jayaram.

Pazhassi outsells Ghajini?

Alright, here goes. There is a Malayalam movie that was made on a princely budget of Rs 32 crores, collected a whopping 1.5 crore in domestic collections on the first day, and have recovered its entire production costs and a whopping profit in digital rights unheard of in Indian cinema since its release on October 16, 2009, quietly. A revolution that commenced in God’s own country is slowly gathering gravitas in a way that is going to surprise the pants out of the self – styled trade pundits who tend to look further down south of the Vindhyas with calculated disdain. Pazhassi Raja, the multilingual biopic based on the life and times of Keralavarma Pazahassi Raja, directed by Hariharan and scripted by the legendary MT Vasudevan Nair would have to be the most prestigious and the costliest movie ever mounted on the silver screen from God’s own country. Shackled and restricted, as with any other regional movie industry, to a market base that is limited to its language, the Malayalam movie industry has been stretching its limits to accommodate the rising costs of production and the returns. Its only saving grace that has been the rising demand and outflow of technical talent to other regional movie making projects and the remake rights of its commercial releases to mainly Bollywood.There has also been a rising trend in the sale of digital rights of the movies to TV and the web, which has also slowly started making tidy profits for the production houses.
And it is in this existing scenario that this officially unconfirmed report of the season’s biggest commercial hit and and an equally critically acclaimed movie has shot into prominence for a reason far removed than its already deserving collaborations on its technical front. Pazhassi Raja has been in the news for its one-of-a-kind collaboration of the country’s best talent and the local ones in a project with a budget unheard of in Malayalam movie production. The team of MT Vasudevan Nair, Hariharan,Ilaiyaraja, Resool Pookkuttya and Bharath Mammooty can only mean a phenomenal movie that will shake the foundations of Malayalam cinema.
And the domestic box – office has never rejoiced like it has in its first week collection which ran into Rs.1.5 crores on the initial day of its release from theaters in Kerala alone, which is a record. Peanuts, if you consider the Big National picture, but a windfall when Kerala is concerned.
Asianet picked up its Malayalam satellite rights for a whopping Rs. 2.6 Crore. But what comes next is what sends shivers down our timbers. According to our sources, the international digital rights has been sold to HBO for a whopping Rs.60 crore.

Aamir Khan’s Ghajini till now held the highest payout with Rs 22 crore, which would make Pazhassi Raja THE HIGHEST GROSSER IN TERMS OF OVERSEAS DIGITAL RIGHTS IN INDIAN CINEMA.
Not bad for a movie which was built on a budget of around Rs. 32 crore – the highest in Malayalam Cinema but short change when it comes to Bollywood.

Pazhassi Raa is enroute to being the top – grosser for 2009 as things stand today in Malayalam releases, and if the above is confirmed, will also make it the phenomenon of 2009.
