Mammootty's PA turns producer

02sep2011

Malayalam superstar Mammootty's long time personal assistant S. George is turning producer with director Deepan's Newsmaker, starring Mammootty as a crusader journalist. George is producing the film under the banner of Cincil Celluloid. Notably, this is not the first time the personal assistant of a star becomes a producer. Earlier, Mohanlal’s personal assistant Antony Perumbavoor became a producer and his Aashirwad Cinemas is today a big banner. The script is written by Vinod Guruvayoor; Newsmaker will commence only after the director completes his ongoing Hero, starring Prithviraj, and it would be Mammootty's Onam release in 2012.
