Kumaran ropes in Kavya before marriage

There is no need to introduce National Award-winning director K.P. Kumaran, who has made the recent Mohanlal starrer Aakashagopuram, an adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's classic 'Master Builder'. The movie has turned to be a true masterpiece, clearly demonstrating the real craftsmanship of the director. While Aakashagopuram is getting good reports from all over, the director is set to venture into his next project which will feature Kavya Madhavan in a key role.

To be produced by Medient, the yet-to-be-named film is based on the famous novel Ente Uppappakkoru Aanayundayirunnu (My Grandpa Had an Elephant), written by the inimitable Malayalam writer Vaikkom Muhammed Basheer. It is learnt that Revathy, Jagathy Sreekumar and Dileep too would be playing key roles in the film along with Kavya.

The script is penned by K.P. Kumaran himself. More details about the film are awaited.

The actress is currently working for Banaras with dancer-actor Vineeth, directed by Nemam Pushparaj, in which she plays a dancer for the first time. Meera Nandan of Mulla fame also has a key role in this film with some brilliantly choreographed dance sequences.

Bharat Gopi's Swan Song

It has been just seven months since Malayalam veteran actor Bharath Gopi had left us for ever. When he died in a private hospital at Thiruvananthapuram on January 29 due to a massive heart attack, his part in Balachandra Menon's De Ingottu Nokkiye was not even half-complete. Technically, De Ingottu Nokkiye is his last film in a career spanning nearly three decades; however, K.P. Kumaran's yet to be released Aakashagopuram calls special attention as his final venture. In Aakashagopuram, an adaptation.....
