The movie, said to be made on a whopping budget of Rs 10 crore, is believed to be the second expensive film of Dileep after King Lear.
Will Christmas movies be released in January?
Georgettan's Pooram release date has been declared when Mollywood industry is facing issues due to the tiff between the producers and distributors associations in Kerala. Due to the tension, Malayalam movies, which were scheduled to hit the screens as Christmas releases in December have been postponed.
"Suspense over Kerala strikes continue no decision today also both sides stick to their stand on terms [sic]," film distributor Mukesh Ratilal Mehta tweeted.
Christmas releases like Mohanlal's Munthirivallikal Thalirkkumbol, Dulquer Salmaan's Jomonte Suviseshangal, Prithviraj Sukumaran's Ezra and Jayasurya's Fukri were expected to get released in December. Rumours are rife that these films will be released on January 5. However, no official confirmations are available on the release date as of now.
