Vande Matharam' for january
(various sources)

Mammooty's bilingual 'Vande Matharam' will make a release by the end of this January, as per the present plans.

The film is produced by Henry under the banner of Pankaj productions which will also have action king Arjun in a surprise cameo.

Directed by T Aravind, the film titled 'Aruvadai' in Tamil is presently in the dubbing stages. The producers are planning to make a simultaneous release for both the versions. But as Mammootty have another action film ‘Raudram' geared up for January, the producers may be forced to delay the release until February.

After a long time, Mammootty is acting in a bilingual film.

Directed by Karthik, debutante, a former associate of Mani Ratnam., the film has Sneha doing the female lead.

The first schedule of the film titled Vande Matharam in Malayalam was completed in Chennai last week.

The director was considering the same title initially for the Tamil version, but it looks as if he backed off when he realized that the name isn't Tamil enough to claim tax exemptions.

And so he finally fixed the title of the Tamil film as Aruvadai.


Mammootty has been acclaimed for his performance both in Tamil and Malayalam films. However, the actor has been concentrating more on his Malayalam ventures since some time. His last release in Tamil was Junior Senior. He has lot of hits and super hit in tamil like azakan, makkal aadchi, arashiyal, thalapathi, aanantham, marumalarchi, ethirum puthirum etc.. Now the actor returns to Tamil films with his Tamil movie Aruvadai, which will be released in Tamil Nadu and Kerala simultaneously. The Telugu version will obviously be released in Andhra Pradesh. . Mammootty will appear as a initially self-centred policeman; Sneha will take off in her role of an airlines pilot
