Mammootty, Mohanlal to preach and teach

After donning the roles of personalities like Chandhu, Basheer and Ambedhkar to perfection and after bagging a national award for each of the attempts, Mammootty is now going to play one of the biggest roles of his life. He is to appear as Sree Narayana Guru in the new film Yuga Purushan. The film which is directed by R Sukumaran, who has directed films like Padhamudra and Rajashilpi earlier, will essay the saga of the lives and activities of one of the best known social reformer of Kerala - Sree Narayana Guru. With the role, Mammootty is getting a rare chance to remain immortal among a sect of Kerala population who consider guru, as everything.
The film will also present the contemporaries of guru like Gandhiji, Chattambi Swamikal and Swami Vivekanandhan and his relations with them. Know who is going to be in the role of Swami Vivekanandhan. It is none other than the most flexible and accomplished actor of our times - Mohanlal. With the inclusion of Lal in the proceedings, the project has become one of the biggest to look out in 2008.
