Filmmaker Priyadarshan reunites with Urvashi after 28 years

The 90s movie Midhunam is an evergreen hit among Malayalis, which anyone even today would love to re-watch. After 28 years of the hit Mohanlal-starrer, director Priyadarshan and the female lead Urvashi reunited for the Tamil movie Appatha.

It is interesting to note that the movie also marks the 700th film of Urvashi, the most versatile female actor the Malayalam film industry has ever seen. The two were delighted to work together again, and the director took his social media to share the happiness. Posting their picture together, he wrote in the caption, ‘The reunion happened after long ‘Midhunam’!’. Urvashi could be seen in an elderly makeup in the movie, which would probably be her character in the upcoming Tamil movie. 

Fans were equally happy and excited to see them together, as Midhunam has turned to be a classic with the actors’ performances and the filmmaker’s brilliance. Many poured their love and wishes for them, and many others took a moment to recall Urvashi’s outstanding performance too. 

The National-Award winning actor is quite an influential figure in Malayalam cinema, who has managed to amaze everyone, each time when she appears on the screen. She has extended her territory to Tamil, Telugu and Kannada industries, and has worked with most of the stars in Indian cinema including Kamal Haasan. In recent times, she has been receiving massive appreciation for her movies including Soorarai Pottru and Mookuthi Amman. She has a handful of upcoming in her kitty like Appatha, Kesu Ee Veedinte Nadhan, and more.
