Dileep - A
rising star.
Hits after hits, Dileep is
currently the most sought after star in Malayalam cinema and is
going great guns with the hugely popular Meesha Madhavan.
With his attempts to give
completeness to the character as an actor, Dileep is rising to new
heights in his career.
Ever since the Lohitadas-directed
Joker was released in 2000, Dilip's popularity has been on the
rise. Subsequently, he has been delivering hit after hit like
Ishtam, Ee Parakkum Thalika, Mazhathullikilukkam etc. With the
recent Meesha Madhavan becoming a big hit, Dilip has become the
hot property in Malayalam film industry. The producers, who were
up in arms against Dileep two-three months ago, have given him the
position of the most guaranteed actor in Malayalam film. In the
trade, theatres are now willing to pay for Dileep films the kind
of advance they used to pay Mohanlal movies earlier.
Dileep entered the Malayalam
filmdom through Sallapam. With the film becoming a hit, Dileep
proved that he has come to stay in the industry for long. His
debut film earned him the name of a good comedy actor. By the time
Punjabi House, a Rafi-Mecartin film hit the theatres Dileep had
already done good homework on his part with some numbers good
enough to capture the hearts of his well wishers as well as
detractors.
It was Lohitadas's Joker which
unchained him from the type comedy roles he had at his hand. He
played the role of the joker, who always wore a smile at his face
and was making others life even when he had a whole lot of
personal agonies hid within his heart. He handled the character
with easiness that he never had to look back after the film's
stupendous success. Hits after hits have made him the most valued
star in Malayalam tinseldom.
Experimenting with odd roles,
Dileep, the most popular actor moves ahead to take on the number
one position in Malayalam film industry. Dilip's forthcoming film
Kunjikoonan has the star playing a dual role for the first time in
his career - as an ugly-looking, crippled hunchback and a handsome
college-guy. The film which is being produced by Milan Jaleel
under the banner of Supreme Films, is being directed by Shashi
Shanker. |
