Palery Manikyam begins

Scenarist-turned-director Ranjith's upcoming period crime thriller Palery Manikyam, starring superstar Mammootty in a double role, will start rolling in Moogambika temple on July 3.

Produced by A.V. Anoop and Subair under the banner of AVA Productions and Varnachithra Big Screen, Palery Manikyam is based on T.P. Rajeevan's famous novel 'Palery Maanikyam - Oru Paathira Kolapathakathinte Katha', serialized in Mathrubhumi (weekly) in the early 60's. The story is based on the sensational Manikkam murder case that rocked Kerala in the 50's.

What makes the film interesting is that Mammootty will play a dual role: as the CBI officer who re-investigates the case in 2009 and a feudal Muslim landlord who lived in the 50's and was involved in the crime. There is no relationship between these two characters.

Others in the cast are Sreenivasan, Vijayaraghavan and Siddique. Debutant Prakash Kutty will be the cameraman, while music is by Biji Bal. Ranjith recently held a film workshop in Kozhikode to choose theatre actors for Palery Manikyam. The aim of the workshop was to finetune the actors who are not familiar with acting for films.
