Filmmaker Priyadarshan is set to collaborate with Mohanlal on his 100th film. Priyadarshan described this collaboration as an event “rarer than a blue moon.” Mohanlal also shared a note regarding this on social media.
“Some milestones do not belong to one person alone. They belong to everyone who stood close enough to witness the journey. My dearest Priyan is stepping into his 100th film, and I find myself without words for what that truly means to me. A hundred films is not just a number. It is a lifetime of stories told with passion, countless mornings driven by belief in the magic of cinema, and a journey of unwavering dedication that I have had the privilege of witnessing up close.”
He added:
“This landmark film is being brought to life by Antony Perumbavoor under the banner of Aashirvad Cinemas, with Binu George Alexander as co-producer. I am deeply honoured to be a part of this journey. Some moments are not meant to be explained, only felt and held close with gratitude. To my friend, here is to everything you have created, everything you have given the world, and all the stories that are still waiting to be told.”
On Saturday, March 21, Mohanlal shared a video announcing their collaboration for Priyadarshan’s 100th film. Priyadarshan remarked that his joy stems not merely from the fact that this marks his 100th movie, but rather from the fact that the very actor who starred in his debut film is now working in his 100th—a sentiment he expressed with great warmth.
“first in world cinema history”. The filmmaker added, “What is great is that this record will never be rewritten; that is the kind of record we are setting.”
