#Whatif ‘300’ was made in Mollywood

Welcome my travel partners. Today let's enter the universe of the Hollywood classic ‘300’ which marked the evolution of virtual filmmaking. Termed as the ‘most handsome pantomime’, ‘300’ is indeed a milestone in filmmaking and it was certainly hard for me to grab a ticket to this film. Hope you guys enjoy your ride today. Over to Simon.

#Simon Says, “It's beyond doubt that the Hollywood epic action film ‘300’ is one of the best stylish movies ever made and making such a film in Mollywood would be an expensive task. As the Malayalam film industry is venturing into virtual filmmaking, there is a possibility that films with such production qualities can be made in Mollywood too. Buckle up as ETimes presents the 40th episode of #Whatif ‘300’ was made in Mollywood.”

Possibility 1: King Leonidas as Prithviraj Sukumaran

#Simon Says, “The mighty spartan king Leonidas is the most powerful character in this epic action drama movie who famously led a small band of Greek allies at the battle of Thermopylae in 480 BCE. Coming to the Mollywood remake, Prithviraj Sukumaran, who has played a similar role in the epic action movie ‘Urumi’, could be apt to play King Leonidas.”

Possibility 2: This is ‘Kammatti Paadam’

#Simon Says, “ one can never forget the catchy line ‘This is Sparta’ from ‘300’ and the movie is stacked with several such one-liners. Utmost care should be given while penning down the dialogues for the Mollywood remake and for the same reason the writer of Dulquer Salmaan’s ‘Kammatti Paadam’, P Balachandran is chosen for writing the dialogues for the Mollywood remake of ‘300’.”

Possibility 3: Directed by Amal Neerad

#Simon Says, “The use of extreme slow-motion, stylish filmmaking, and goosebumps worthy dialogues are yet another highlight of ‘300’ and the Hollywood director Zack Snyder has executed the wafer-thin plot flawlessly with the use of such gimmicks to engage the audience. Coming to the Mollywood remake, Amal Neerad, who is best known for the stylish films ‘Bheeshma Parvam’, ‘Big B’, and ‘Anwar’, would be perfect to don the director’s cap.”

Possibility 4: Queen Gorgo as Shobana

#Simon Says, “Queen Gorgo is the wife character of the mighty kind Leonidas and the Hollywood actress Lena Headey played the role to its perfection. Coupled with such elegance, charm, and wit, the character Queen Gorgo has all the elements necessary for an actor to unveil her true acting potential. It would be a cake walk for the most talented Malayalam actress Shobana to portray the King Leoniads’ wife Queen Gorgo in the Mollywood remake of ‘300’.”

#Simon Says, “Compared to the earlier times, now the Malayalam film industry is focusing more on the technical aspect of a movie and for the same reason there have been several movies that are coming out recently that rely on its execution style rather than the content itself. At a point like this, it's high time that Mollywood should venture into executing films like the Hollywood epic drama ‘300’ that focus more on its visual style. On our today’s journey we have covered most of the possibilities on #Whatif ‘300’ was made in Mollywood. Hope you guys loved today’s episode. Let's meet next week with yet another interesting episode of #Whatif. Till the bye.”
