ALEXANDER THE GREAT FOR ONAM

For the next Onam, Mohanlal will be Alexander, the great, for Malayees. Definitely not a historical on the great emperor, the character of the movie that the superstar of Mollywood is going to play for the next big festival season is named after the greatest emperor.
The movie also titled as 'Alexander The Great' will be directed by Murali Nagavally, one of the old friends of Lal. The director is also famous for his debut feature 'Wanted' which also featured Mohanlal in a guest role.
The project which is planned to kick off by the fifteenth of May will be scripted by C Balachandran. Planned to be shot at Dubai and Mumbai, the movie will also feature Siddhique, Jagathy, Innocnet, Saikumar and Ganesh in the key roles. V B K Menon will produce this 'Alexander the great' under his home banner Anugraha Cine Arts.
