Announces the release of 'Marakkar: Arabikadalinte Simham'; budget 100 crore
The most eagerly awaited movie is 'Marakkar: Arabikadalinte Simham'. The film was completed on the biggest budget in Malayalam cinema to date. Ashirwad Cinemas has announced the release date of Marakkar after the Kerala Government announced that it would open theatres in the state. The movie will hit theatres on March 26 this year. Producer Ashirwad Films has officially announced the release date.
This announcement has made the movie lovers very excited. Marakkar was announced for release in March last year. Later, with the advent of lockdowns, the film industry itself took off. Mohanlal will play the role of Kunjali Marakkar in director Priyadarshan's dream project Marakkar.
Mohanlal's 'Ram' has Lucifer villain as antagonist
Meanwhile, despite the Kerala government's permission, there is still uncertainty over the opening of theatres in the state from next Tuesday.
FIOK, a coalition of filmmakers, said the decision would be made after discussions with producers, distributors and theatre owners. They also think that showing the film with only half the seats in the theatre will create a huge financial burden.
The cinema industry is facing a major financial crisis as theatres have been closed for ten months. Thousands lost their jobs. At this stage, the producers are hoping that the theatrical release of a big movie like Marakkar will give a big boost to the film industry.
In the meantime, Vijay's 'Master' was announced for Pongal release in Kerala along with Tamil Nadu.
