The still picture shared by Sun Pictures reveals Mohanlal standing with head turning back. He is seen wearing half sleeve shirt and plain glass. Cine analysts have termed Mohanlal’s outfit as stylish. According to sources, Mohanlal will play a cameo role in the film and is said to be extremely important. Mohanlal only needs few days to complete his portion. However, there is no official confirmation as to whether Mohanlal will meet Rajinikanth.

Jailer will hit during Diwali 2023 and will surely rock the theatres because of the presence of Mohanlal. Even if the film fails to put up a good show, the presence of Mohanlal will greatly help. The makers are expected to release more stills in the upcoming days.

Varisu is an upcoming Tamil movie with Vijay playing the lead role along with Rashmika Mandanna. However, the latest news from the rumor mills is that Actor Vijay also popularly called Thalapathy Vijay is set to seek divorce from his wife Sangeeta Sornalingam after 23 years of marriage. The couple have two children namely Jason and Divya. It’s to be noted that his son also acted in few films and went to study filming in Canada. As of this writing, Vijay is busy with the promotions and release of his upcoming blockbuster film Varisu. However, there are speculations that Vijay and Sangeetha have already separated after the emergence of Wikipedia entry claiming that the couple have divorced upon mutual consent.

Interestingly, Sangeetha was missing during the Varisu audio launch and Vijay didn’t mention anything about her during his speech. She has also seen missing from Atlee’s wife Priya’s Seemantham aka Baby shower function. According to Pinkvilla who approached a close friend of the couple confirmed that the divorce rumors are not true. Currently, Sangeetha is enjoying holidays in the US and UK along with her children. They revealed that the divorce rumors are baseless and they have no idea as to how it started.

Sangeeta Sornalingam has been inactive on social media for over 164 weeks and has not been posting any recent pictures with Vijay. Moreover, she has been only following the Instagram pages of AR Rahman, Actor Vijay Official Fan Page, and Thalapathy Vijay Fan Page.

Vijay met Sangeetha way back in 1996 during a fan meet. She has roots in Sri Lanka but settled in the UK. She reportedly praised him for his performance in Poove Unakkaga. Vijay got impressed with her dedication and passion. They fell in love and after a short time Vijay introduced her to his parents. The couple got married on August 25, 1999. There was no social medai at that time and hence nobody knows about her marriage unless you had purchased film magazines like Kumudam and Nana.

Varisu will release on Pongal day and will compete heavily with Ajith’s Thnivu. Varisu tells the story of a business tycoon’s son, who is forced to take over the company because of adverse circumstances. Directed by Vamshi Paidipally, Varisu features Rashmika Mandanna, R Sarath Kumar, Khushbu, Prakash Raj, Srikanth, Jayasudha, Sangeetha Krish, Shaam, and Yogi Babu. The film is being released under the banner of Sri Venkateswara Creations. The satellite rights has been bagged by Sun TV.

Mohanlal plays the role of Kalidas. It looks like the film is scheduled to hit theatres during Republic Day 2023. There is also a possibility that the film could be a direct OTT release. Alone has been written by Rajesh Jayaraman and produced by Antony Perumbavoor via Aashirvad Cinemas. Mohanlal is the only character with voice-overs of few other actors. The background score was composed by 4 Musics.

Mohanlal’s run in 2022 hasn’t been successful with all his films failing to garner good response. His ambitious Aaraatu also failed miserably. The much-anticipated Monster also failed. Even though his films fail, producers depend on the highly-paid Pulimurugan actor because of his caliber and dedication.

Mohanlal’s filmography in 2022 includes Aaraattu, Bro Daddy, 12th Man, and Monster. These film ended up in massive failures despite the initial hype. The interesting fact is that out of four films, 3 of them are produced by Mohanlal’s own production house owned by driver turned producer Antony Perumbavoor. Hence, the actor didn’t face any loss since he sold the films to OTT platforms.

The Oppam actor will have a busy schedule in 2023 with around five films expected to roll out. This includes Alone, Olavum Theeravum, Barroz: Guardian of D’Gama’s Treasure, Ram and Malaikottai Valiban. According to Wikipedia, Mohanlal’s next date is only available in 2025 with five films lined up in 2024. He is also expected to do a Telugu film Vrushabha in 2024. We hope 2023 will be a great year for Mohanlal and overall Indian cinema.
