KOCHI: For the first time in his career, veteran Malayalam actor Mukesh is going to play the role of a hardcore communist. ‘Priyappetta Nattukare’ is the name of the film.
Sreejith Palery will be directing the movie produced by Grammy Entertainment. TK Santosh is the script writer.
Mukesh plays the role of Dasan, a very sincere party worker who realizes the shocking conspiracies behind many party dictums. The shooting for ‘Priyappette Nattukare’ will begin soon.
Mukesh started his acting career in 1982 with the movie ‘Balloon’ and followed it up with a series of slapstick comedy flicks like ‘Ponnum Kudathinu Pottu’, ‘Boeing, Boeing’, ‘Akkare Ninnoru Maran’ and ‘Odaruthammava Aalariyaam’.
Director Siddique-Lal gave him a big break in 1989 with the film ‘Ramji Rao Speaking’. After this film, he became established as a lead hero of Mollywood.
