Mammootty is famous for prioritizing his projects. He switches his projects, with the best story that he listens. The Mega Star will be seen sooner playing the lead in Amal Neerad's new venture Son of Alexander.

Amal Neerad, best known for Big B and Sagar Alias Jacky has worked with Ram Gopal Varma in James, Darna Zaroori Hai, Shiva and the Malayalam film Black as cinematographer; he is a product of Calcutta film institute.

Fans expect this to be the most stylish character ever played by Mammootty. Son of Alexander is the sequel of the movie Samrajyam released in late eighties in which the star played the role of an underworld don called Alexander.

Samrajyam was one of the biggest hit and had run in theatres for around 250 days and is dubbed to many languages.

Big B gave a new face to Mammootty in the role of Bilal John Kurisingal. He kept an emotionless face throughout the film. In Son of Alexander, Mammootty is to have a similar appearance to that in Big B.

Amal's earlier film Sagar Elias Jackie was the sequel of Irupatham Nootandu. Son of Alexander is produced by Marikar Films.
