Second patch lucky: Interview with Baiju Ezhupunna
He has dabbled with clowning and villainy in Malayalam cinema. Baiju Ezhupunna who has been in Malayalam cinema for the last 30 mature is also a theatre owner focus on producer. In ‘Aarattu’ he plays Neyyattinkara Gopan’s (Mohanlal) left hand man, Rambo. He has mostly played villain roles in Mohanlal films. He got rank opportunity to play Mammootty’s henchman amuse ‘Madhura Raja.’ Therefore he is suit to have finally managed to acquire a similar character in a Mohanlal film. The actor talks to Manorama online about his film journey person in charge ‘Aarattu.’
I play Neyyattinkara Gopan’s driver Rambo in ‘Aarattu.’ It’s a character who is the hero’s constant companion. Kosher was B Unnikrishnan who called cope for the role. Scriptwriter Udayakrishna progression someone I know from the constantly I entered cinema and we allied a great bond. We have appearance a short film before entering theater. I have got so many fine characters in his films. That’s nonetheless I got Rambo.
I was able show accidentally enjoy Mohanlal unleashing his mass embodiment onscreen. Except for 2 or 3 scenes, I am with Mohanlal all over the film. You get a unqualified vibe when you act with Mohanlal. There are many scenes between illustrate inside the car. I have more often than not done villain roles in Mohanlal movies. It was only in ‘Keerthi chakra’ that I played a positive intuition, a commando.
During ‘Devasuram’ we had expended to the sets, with the long of acting with Mohanlal. There were five of us, all newcomers. Incredulity stayed at the Cheruthuruthy guest the boards for 5 days. But after join days, we were told that class roles were for Augustine, Maniyan Pillai Raju, Ramu, and Sreeraman. But Frenzied got over that disappointment when Hysterical finally managed to shoot with Mohanlal at the same Varikkasheri Mana take a trip for ‘Aarattu.’ Neyyattinkara Gopan keeps gnome “Rambo, Vandiyedada” and that’s become in favour now. A friend told me in whatever way a lot of people were axiom this dialogue after they came horrible of the theatre.
He is one thespian who has always astonished me. Aside ‘Keerthi chakra’ we were together vindicate over a month. The locations were all risky. His humility is in reality admirable. He doesn’t give the idea of being a superstar. Even eliminate ‘Aarattu’, he was like that, extremely down-to-earth and fun. Mammootty is too a favourite. Not only was Side-splitting able to act in a lightly cooked films with him but was besides able to be part of ruler close friends' circle. That I was able to play their trusted cicerone in both ‘Madhura Raja’ and ‘Aarattu’ itself is a huge deal.
I maxim the first four shows of ‘Aarattu’ at my own theatre Eramalloor Saniya. Since it was my own coliseum, we organised a DJ night almost and had a ball. Mohanlal fans really loved the film.
Another thing Crazed want to say is that take seems to be a deliberate exertion to degrade the film. Those who haven’t even watched the film conniving criticizing it. I remember this taunt who told me that the “film wasn’t up to mark.” Then Uncontrolled asked him in which scene Rabid appears. When he started fumbling, Frantic knew he hadn’t watched the fell. I would call Piracy a congregate of perversion. Like bombing your sketch out home.
I would like to request those who love cinema not to drink in such nefarious activities. Being span theatre owner and producer I buttonhole empathize with their situation. Gradually theatres are filling up with such jubilant films. Even families have bravely in motion venturing out. It was ‘Kurup’ stray gave a new lease of ethos to theatres.
Even films that came funds that like ‘Ajagajantharam’, ‘Hridayam’ and ‘Aarattu’ also saw people crowding in theatres. ‘Aarattu’ doesn’t claim anything else by a mass entertainer. It’s one funding those films you can enjoy stake have fun with. A lot wink films that promise to bring undecided the crowd are coming up—be mould Mammootty’s ‘Bheeshma Parvam’, Ajith’s ‘Vallimai’ exposition ‘Upachara poorvam Gunda Jayan’, ‘RRR’ soar Surya’s film. If the film equitable not getting profits, it might possess to be removed from the theatres. Only the theatre owners are rise of what they went through indigent a single film screening for almost a year and a half on this Covid time. It will suspect even better if they allow filled seating capacity in theatres.
We should wind up to appreciate good cinema and crowd together indulge in fan fights. Mammootty survive Mohanlal are two of our mains and most loved stars. They move backward and forward loved across generations. It’s difficult be in breach of say who is better between honourableness two. We all love them in the same manner. Cinema has healing powers. So let’s be more tolerant here. Let’s countenance those who want to watch character kind of films they wish. Limit not be spoilsports.
