Mammootty rejected Dominic and the Ladies’ Purse, reveals Gautham Vasudev Menon: '20 mins into the narration, he was in'

Hindustan Times  

When a veteran director who has delivered numerous hits in Tamil cinema with top stars makes his Malayalam directorial debut, it is a big moment. Director Gautham Vasudev Menon’s film Dominic and the Ladies’ Purse, starring Malayalam star Mammootty, is all set to hit theatres on January 23. Gautham Vasudev Menon has directed Mammootty IN Dominic and the Ladies’ Purse. I heard the story by Neeraj Rajan and I saw Mammootty in the role of Dominic,” explains the Kaakha Kaakha director, adding that initially Mammootty, aka Mammukka, wasn’t keen on an investigative thriller. The climax also is quite intense; it's not something you’d expect.” Dominic and the Ladies’ Purse was an unusual title for a film but the director feels it was the apt one.
