Malavika mohanan reveals her biggest challenge in shooting thangalaan chiyaan vikram pa ranjith movie - Tamil Movie Cinema News

Leading actress Malavika Mohanan has revealed that the biggest challenge she faces in her role in National Award-winning actor 'Chiyaan' Vikram's Thangalaan is the time she has to sit down for makeup and costumes. Sharing photos from the sets of the upcoming film on Instagram, the Master heroine said, "When you’re playing a character which needs 4-5 hours of makeup & costume time daily(sitting still for that long has been the biggest challenge, yes😅), most of the BTS photos on your camera roll tend to be these 🌝 #Thangalaan ♥️ (sic)"

Malavika is playing a key role in Vikram's Thangalaan being directed by acclaimed filmmaker Pa. Ranjith, with her look in the film revealed in 2022 when the first official glimpse of the film was released. The youth sensation was shown sporting a tribal look alongside Malayalam actress Parvathy Thiruvothu, who too is cast in a key role. Based on Malavika's latest statement, one can assume that her character will have a crucial role to play in Thangalaan, with the film's shooting currently said to be in the final stages. 

Produced by Studio Green's K E Gnanavel Raja and Ranjith's Neelam Productions, Thangalaan will feature music composed by the National Award winner G. V. Prakash Kumar and expectations are huge for him to come out firing on all cylinders with the songs and the background score. The film is set in the pre-Independence era in the Kolar Gold Fields (KGF) in Karnataka and Vikram has once again undergone a radical physical transformation for his role, with a special video released on his birthday in April giving audiences a glimpse into the rigorous work he has put in. Likewise, Pa. Ranjith and the entire team have also been showered with praise for the grand scope in which Thangalaan is being made and fans will no doubt look forward to witnessing the action on the big screen when the film opens in cinemas in 2024.
