രണ്ടാമൂഴം സിനിമയാക്കുന്നു!
എം ടി വാസുദേവൻ നായർ എന്ന എഴുത്തുകാരനെ മലയാളികൾ എത്രത്തോളം ഉയരത്തിലാണോ പ്രതിഷ്‌ഠിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നത്, അതിലും ഒരുപടി മുകളിൽ നിൽക്കുന്ന കൃതിയാണ് അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ രണ്ടാമൂഴം. മഹാഭാരതകഥയിലേക്ക് ഭീമന്റെ കണ്ണിലൂടെ നോക്കുന്ന ഈ കൃതി സിനിമയാവുകയാണ്. ഹരിഹരനാണ് സംവിധാനം.
എന്നാൽ രണ്ടാമൂഴം ഒരു മലയാള സിനിമ മാത്രമായിരിക്കില്ല. ഇന്ത്യയിലെ എല്ലാ പ്രധാനഭാഷകളിലും ഇംഗ്ലീഷിലും സിനിമ റിലീസ് ചെയ്യും. നടീനടന്മാരും വിവിധ ഇന്ത്യൻ ഭാഷകളിൽ നിന്നുള്ളവരാകും. 1984-ൽ പ്രസിദ്‌ധീകരിച്ച ഈ നോവൽ വിവിധ ഭാഷകളിലേക്ക് വിവർത്തനം ചെയ്‌തിട്ടുണ്ട്. കൂടാതെ ഇതിവൃത്തം മഹാഭാരതവും. അതിനാൽ മലയാളികൾക്കു മാത്രമല്ല മറ്റു ഭാഷക്കാർക്കും ഈ സിനിമ ആസ്വദിക്കാനാകും എന്നാണ് കണക്കുകൂട്ടൽ.
1979-ൽ ഇടവഴിയിലെ പൂച്ച മിണ്ടാപ്പൂച്ച എന്ന ചിത്രത്തിലൂടെയാണ് എം ടി- ഹരിഹരൻ ടീം ആദ്യമായി ഒന്നിക്കുന്നത്. പിന്നീട് വളർത്തുമൃഗങ്ങൾ (1981), വെള്ളം ( 1984), പഞ്ചാഗ്നി ( 1986), നഖക്ഷതങ്ങൾ (1986), അമൃതംഗമയ (1987), ആരണ്യകം (1988), ഒരു വടക്കൻ വീരഗാഥ (1989), പരിണയം( 1994), എന്നു സ്വന്തം ജാനകിക്കുട്ടി( 1998) 2009-ൽ പഴശ്ശിരാജയും.
ചിത്രത്തിന്റെ പണികൾ തുടങ്ങിക്കഴിഞ്ഞു. പ്രേക്ഷകർക്കു മുമ്പിൽ ഇനി അവശേഷിക്കുന്നത് ഒരു പ്രധാന ചോദ്യമാണ്- ആരായിരിക്കും ഭീമൻ? പിന്നെ കുന്തി, ദ്രൗപദി, അർജുനൻ, ദുര്യോധനൻ….. അങ്ങനെ ഒട്ടേറെ കഥാപാത്രങ്ങൾ. ഇവരെ അഭ്രപാളിയിലെത്തിക്കാൻ ആർക്കൊക്കെയാകും ഭാഗ്യം ലഭിക്കുക?

‘Randamoozham' to make its screen debut
Bheema is all set for a new act. Nearly three decades after M.T. Vasudevan Nair's masterpiece novel ‘Randamoozham' (Second Turn), floored Malayalis, the Pandava warrior from the Mahabharata is eyeing the big screen.
M.T.'s celebrated novel is going to be made into a film by Hariharan. M.T. is working on the script, even as Hariharan is doing his own homework for what is perhaps the most ambitious project of the writer-director duo in their association of over 30 years.
Making history
Their last joint effort had resulted in ‘Pazhassi Raja,' the historical that made history in Malayalam cinema. It had lived up to the huge expectations the duo had generated as they were teaming up 18 years after the iconic ‘Oru Vadakkan Veeragatha.'
“After ‘Pazhassi Raja,' I felt ‘Randamoozham' was the obvious – if not the only – choice I had. I needed something that would challenge me further as a director. And ‘Randamoozham,' a brilliant novel that gave a whole new perspective to the Mahabharata, is the ultimate challenge for any director. M.T. felt I could take up that challenge and we have been working on the project for the past few days here in Kozhikode,” Hariharan told Friday Review in an exclusive interview.
The veteran director knows that the expectations would be even greater than ‘Pazhassi Raja' because ‘Randamoozham' is regarded as one of the finest novels ever in Malayalam and has been translated to several languages, including English. The novel narrates the story of the Mahabharata from the perspective of Bheema, the second of Pandu's five sons.
Hariharan is excited at the prospect of giving shape to M.T.'s Bheema, Draupadi, Kunti, Arjuna, Karna and others. Leading stars from different Indian languages will play them on screen. ‘Randamoozham' will just not be a Malayalam film, says the director.

Multilingual film
“It will be released in all the major Indian languages as well as in English, for the novel has its admirers in several languages besides Malayalam, through its translations,” says Hariharan.
Whenever Hariharan and M.T. have put their heads together, there has been magic on the screen, right from ‘Idavazhiyile Poocha Minda Poocha' (1979), their first film together. Remarkably, they never repeated themselves in any of their projects. Most of the M.T.-Hariharan works would find a place among the finest films in Indian cinema's history. Now the big question is: who will play Bheema? Watch this space.

wow!!!
wow...thats news...this is my all time fav malayalam book
it it cannot be transformed as a complete visual experience i am afraid..
randamoozham is just a gem...it has so many interpretations,explanatory notes..i just can't describe the depth of it...
i think they will take a part of the novel and make it as a film
the main attraction of the book is the way bheemasena evaluates and thinks different situations.........whenever i read this book i feel really proud of being a keralite as i enjoy o great work in a language which is so sweet and unique,,,M T the genius
glad to see that this book is being notified by many who are not really keen to follow malayalam literature...please try to read this book,,u won't be disappointed at any cost..

Karnan oru Marathi translation alle ? Sivaji Sawanth-inte ?
Njaan vaayichittundu - Nalla Book aanu.
RANDAMOOZHAM is a classic.
It will be very difficult to convert it into a film.
A huge cast is required, plus making all the sets.
