Mohanlal and Jeethu Joseph first teamed up in 2013 for the iconic film “Drishyam,” which became a massive hit. This popular actor-director duo planned to reunite for “Ram,” a realistic action-thriller that began production in 2020. However, the project faced indefinite delays due to the pandemic, lockdowns, and financial issues. Initially, there were reports suggesting that “Ram” might be released in December 2024, but recent updates indicate that the project has been delayed once again.
Further Delays for “Ram”
Originally, it was reported that “Ram” would resume filming in August 2024 after a significant delay. Director Jeethu Joseph confirmed these updates, revealing that the filming was expected to be completed in a month. The plan was to release the highly anticipated Mohanlal starrer in December 2024 as a Christmas special. However, recent reports suggest that “Ram Part 1” will not be released this year as planned.
The delays are attributed to further setbacks in shooting and post-production. This indefinite delay has disappointed cine-goers, particularly Mohanlal fans, who have expressed their frustration on social media. Reports now suggest that the makers aim to release the long-delayed project by the first quarter of 2024. An official update on this matter is expected soon.
Potential Release of Mohanlal L360
In the meantime, there are rumors that “L360,” the untitled upcoming 360th film of Mohanlal, might be released during the Christmas season as “Ram” has been postponed. Initially, the Tharun Moorthy directorial was scheduled to hit theaters during the Ayudha Pooja season of 2024. However, to avoid a clash with other major South Indian releases, the makers have reportedly decided to push the film’s release to Christmas. Mohanlal and Shobana, the lead pair, are expected to resume the next schedule of the “L360” shoot at the beginning of August.
The superstar has acted in nearly 360 films in his career and hopes to amaze us further in the comin. The actor has been busy preparing for his upcoming releases such as Empuraan, Barroz, Kannappa, Vrushabha, Mohanlal 360.
