Manu Uncle was directed by Dennis Joseph with Mammootty in the lead role. Lothar, one of the child protagonists in the film, will never be forgotten by those who have seen the film. Lothar is such a naughty boy. Mammootty’s Manu Uncle was misled into believing that he was an alien by putting a spider into a telescope. Kurian Chacko, who later played Lothar, has not been seen in many movies since. Now he’s back on the silver screen as a comedian.
After Operation Chava, Kurien Chacko will make his second appearance as a magistrate in Tarun Murthy’s Saudi Vellaka. The cast and crew of the film have revealed the story of the journey to find an actor to play the Sarasana Magistrate for the film. She said this in a post shared on Facebook.
Note
At the time of the casting of Saudi White, the team was looking for someone to play the role of the funny magistrate in the film, but neither Tarun nor the team were satisfied with any of the options available.
Although casting director Abu Valayamkulam pulled out the arrows one by one, Tarun was not satisfied with anything.
At that time, Tarun came across a YouTube video very unexpectedly.
The team found out that the mannerisms, sitting and movements of the person seen in the video were all suitable for his character and inquired about him. It was then that he realized that the person seen in the video was Kurian Chacko, who played the role of Lothar in the movie ‘Manu Uncle’.
Years after the release of Manu Uncle, the director was not ready to waste the opportunity to bring him back to the camera. Realizing that we did not have a better chance, Tarun sent a text message to producer Sandeep Sen saying that he had got a magistrate.
At first glance, the enthusiastic producer was quick to make Kurian Chacko, a lottery player, a part of Saudi White.
However, Kurian Chacko’s contact number or other information was not available, which hindered his search for the character, and he eventually contacted the channel that published the interview, and one day the two went to Kuro Chacko’s office.
Kurian Chacko’s reply after saying things.
“Oops .. I’m not …
That’s what Dennis Sir said back then … the movie has changed a lot since then …
That means you look at another person. “
The story of the movie was told by Tarun Pidicha Pidiyale …
After hearing the story, he felt that he too should be a part of it and slowly changed his mind …
After meeting with Tarun, Kurien Chacko agreed to become a funny magistrate in Saudi White, but stopped short of expressing fear, excitement and curiosity about the character he was going to play in front of the camera.
But he came to the location with the right preparation and easily portrayed the character and got everyone’s applause.
