But the fact remains the fact that Ennu ninte Moideen which had already won the box office battle my miles is making these films to the bottom spots in the box office race.

My son has played a small role in the film,” said Rasheed.Ennu Ninte Moideen which released in Kerala on last Saturday had got phenomenal mouth publicity as well as great critical appreciation from here and after the classic Drishyam this is the film that got this much positive mouth publicity from every single person who saw it.
Initially I wanted to produce the film, but later when the director told me that the budget would be beyond my limits, I decided not to. “It has come out so well that, I now feel, I have got back my brother and father.

Vimal also opined that it’s his wish that Kanchanamala never sees the film, because she might not be able to withstand it. “In 2007, when I went to see Kanchanamala, she came with me for the first time in 33 years to the tomb where Moideen has been interned and despite the heavy rains at that time,I could see tears running down her cheeks,” added Vimal. Vimal pointed out that he first did a documentary way back in 2006 on Kanchanamala and it was that spark which forced him to quit his journalistic job and embarked on the journey to make this into a commercial film. “Similar stories would have been told a thousand times before, but what stands out in this film is the dramatisation that has gone in the making and that’s the USP of this film,” said Prithviraj. He said that he spoke to at least 50 people who knew Moideen and one thing he could garner was Moideen was a hero. “Since not even 10 per cent of the true love story has been said in the film, there is enough material for a few more films on the same topic, especially, on the post death events of Moideen,” added Prithviraj.
