(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Actor-director Dhyan Sreenivasan has revealed that he wishes to direct a vibrant commercial entertainer featuring Mohanlal , reminiscent of the cult hit 'Chotta Mumbai'. In a recent interview, Dhyan shared his long-held desire to craft a full-fledged masala film packed with humour, dance, music, and action. As reported by Mathrubhumi, speaking to an online channel, Dhyan said, 'We've been thinking of doing a film with Lal sir. It's still in the discussion phase, but the film I have in mind is very much in the Chotta Mumbai zone.' He explained that the story has been with him for years and was always imagined with either Mohanlal or Mammootty in the lead. 'That's my personal dream,' he said. Mohanlal's energy is meant to be celebrated, says Dhyan Reflecting on Mohanlal's current filmography, Dhyan pointed out the need for a celebratory, high-energy role for the superstar.

The 'Varshangalkku Shesham' actor said that there's humour, dance, and fun in such films, and this is something that the audience loves. Dhyan highlighted how Mohanlal's ability to light up the screen in lighter, commercial roles is something worth revisiting, especially for fans who love his dynamic range.
