Seems like Lal Jose's winning streak has rubbed off on Mammootty as well as the duo's Immanuel has crossed 50 days in theatres across Kerala. While Mammootty's films last year didn't enjoy any success apart from Bavuttyude Nammathil, Lal has been riding high with Diamond Necklace, which crossed 100 days, and Ayaalum Njanum Thammil, which crossed 50 days albeit with an interruption due to the distributor's strike.
Lal posted on a social networking site, "It's tough for movies to cross the 50-day barrier at a time when there are so may challenges posed by wide releases and weekly releases."
The director, who is shooting for Pullipulikalum Aatinkuttyum, also thanked the audience, theatre owners and cast and crew of Immanuel for its success.
