Mohanlal Business With Rajini, NTR
Malayalam superstar Mohanlal who is playing a prominent role in Young Tiger Jr NTR's Janatha Garage has acquired the film's Malayalam version rights. He got the rights as part of his remuneration for the Koratala Siva directorial which is being made as Telugu-Tamil bilingual. Mohanlal is safe with Janatha Garage as the film is expected to make strong business in Kerala, owing to his presence.
Talkie part of this mass action entertainer has been completed and with canning of a song in July, entire shooting will be wrapped up. Janatha Garage is slated for release in Telugu and Malayalam simultaneously on August 12th. Like Telugu spectators, Malayalam audiences are also waiting eagerly for release of this movie.
Seems like, Mohanlal is focusing on distribution, besides doing lead roles in all south languages. He has acquired Kerala distribution rights of superstar Rajinikanth's Kabali for whopping Rs 7.5 crores. Like Mohanlal, Rajinikanth is also a big star in Kerala. In fact, he is a true superstar in entire south. So, Kabali is likely to make at least reasonable business in Malayalam too.
Actually, Kalaipuli S Thanu who produced the movie has demanded Rs 8.5 crores for the rights. But, the deal has been closed at the above said price. Meanwhile, Kabali will go for censor in next week.
There is no clarity yet- whether Kabali will release on scheduled date of July 15th or postpone by a week to 22nd. The makers will decide on this after completion of censor certification process.
