Mohanlal’s latest release Monster has already hit the theatres. The film which is an action-thriller sees Mohanlal in a very new avatar but the film has received mixed reviews. With some really intriguing projects in the works, the Malayalam superstar is now prepared to take his career in a completely new direction. Due to the back-to-back box office misses of his most recent theatrical movies, Aaraattu and Monster, the seasoned actor is currently going through a difficult period in his performing career. Additionally, Mohanlal is getting flak from both his followers and admirers of Malayalam cinema for avoiding the up-and-coming actors in the industry and opting instead for formulaic movies. But the finished actor is now prepared for a new stage in his career.

Mohanlal announces his next with Lijo Jose

In discussing his next collaboration with filmmaker Lijo Jose Pellissery, the actor expressed his delight. The actor shared the news on his Twitter with his followers, writing that he was "delighted" to work with Lijo, whose medium-budget extravaganza Jallikattu was selected as India's official entry for the Oscars. He penned, “I'm delighted to announce that my next project will be with one of the most exciting and immensely talented directors in Indian cinema - Lijo Jose Pellissery. The project will be produced by John and Mary Creative, Max Labs, and Century Films #LijoJosePellissery shibu_babyjohn”
