Most Indians today were not even born when the freedom struggle happened almost 60 years ago. Many have heard of the Sepoy Mutiny but due to lack of documentation, few know about the valour and struggle put up by Puliyur Devar in the 1800s.
One such man who braved the British was a patriot from Kerala named Pazhassi Raja of Padinjare Kovilakom, who opposed the British revenue system. The story of this legend is being revived and the man behind this revival is none other than M.T. Vasudevan Nair, with director Hariharan calling the shots.
Pazhassi Raja has Mammootty in the lead role and efforts are being made to release the film simultaneously in five languages, including English. Sarath Kumar plays a pivotal role in the film and music is composed by Ilayaraja. Also, Oscar winner Resul Pookutty has decided to be a part of the project. The film will soon hit screens and will give a detailed glimpse into India's glorious past!
