Big B to feature in Malayalam film


Director Major Ravi says that Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan has given his nod for his Malayalam film Kandahar, a film about plane hijacking that will also star veteran Mohanlal.

The news came when Big B had made a short visit to the city on Sunday.

Speaking to reporters, Ravi, a former NSG commando who had directed two films featuring Mohanlal, said that he is just trying to imagine how the two greats would come in one single frame. "It is great feeling when I think of that," he said.

Amitabh Bachchan will be seen as the father of a passenger on the ill-fated plane that has been hijacked and Mohanlal will play a commando.

The film is inspired by the hijacking of Indian Airlines flight IC-814 in 1999. It was hijacked while on its way from Kathmandu to New Delhi on Christmas eve by five Pakistani militants and was forced to land in three different airports - Amritsar, Lahore, and Dubai - before spending a week on the tarmac in Kandahar with 186 hostages on board.

This is Ravi’s fourth film after Keerthichakara and Kuruskshetra, both featuring Mohanlal, and Mission 90 Days, which told the real story of Ravi who tracked down the killers of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi. Mammootty played Ravi’s role in the film.

Khandahar will be shot in Delhi, Nepal besides Kerala
