Mohanlal is set to release his upcoming film 'Neru,' directed by Jeethu Joseph. In a recent interview with Manorama News, Mohanlal clarified that despite being directed by Jeethu Joseph, 'Neru' is distinct from 'Drishyam.' The actor emphasized that the film is a courtroom drama, focusing on debates and discussions within the courtroom.
According to Mohanlal, the success of his movies is a result of collective efforts rather than solely his contribution. He expressed indifference to negative comments about his films, asserting that his 46-year film legacy cannot be undermined by mere criticism.
While discussing his role in 'Neru,' Mohanlal mentioned that he has rarely played the role of an advocate in films like Harikrishnans, Adhipan, and Janakan. However, he highlighted the unique experience of portraying an advocate in a courtroom setting, emphasizing the specific decorum and challenges associated with such scenes.
In 'Neru,' the protagonist is portrayed as a simple man who doesn't lay claim to extraordinariness. Mohanlal explained that the movie revolves around how such a character unravels the truth within the confines of a court, offering a new and intriguing experience for him as an actor.
