Mohanlal to do Bheeman’s role in Randamoozham (MT-Hariharan Film)

Superstar Mohanlal is all set to give life to Jnanpith winner M.T. Vasudevan Nair’s angst-ridden Bheeman in Randamoozham a mega film being planned by director Hariharan.

There was intense speculation in filmdom on who would portray Bheeman, the Pandava warrior of Mahabharata, whom MT presented in his 1984 novel as a tragic character, always playing second fiddle to the more heroic Arjuna, misunderstood and derided as a muscleman by friend and foe.

Hariharan is learnt to have finally zeroed in on Mohanlal and held discussions with him on the project for which MT is penning the script. Mr Antony Perumbavoor , the actor’s secretary and partner in Aashirvad Cinemas, told Deccan Chronicle that Mohanlal was all excited about the role. “It is a role which has been in his mind for long and he is greatly thrilled to be part of the MT-Hariharan team again,” he said. However, Mr Antony added that only a preliminary discussion had been held and the project was yet to assume final shape.

Hariharan, fresh from the success of “Pazhassi Raja,” is planning Randamoozham as another epic multilingual movie. The Hariharan-Mohanlal-MT combination had creates such remarkable films as Panchagni, and Amrutamgamaya earlier. Mr Antony said the movie is likely to be costlier than the Rs 25 crore Pazhassi Raja.
