As the most loved thriller film 'Drishyam' is all set for its third part, the rumors are rife that the film may include some of the most popular characters, such as Sam Iyer (from 'Memories'), or even Sethurama Iyer may appear in it.
While such a thought is interesting, the director
Jeethu Joseph
may have some other plans.
Jeethu Joseph reveals—no such crossovers
Talking to SillyMonks Mollywood, the 'Drishyam 3' director confirmed that there will be no crossover of characters from other films in the third part.
He said, 'Even my daughter asked me about such possibilities of having the characters Sethurama Iyer, Sam Alex, and others in 'Drishyam.'' I clarified by saying that if there is a third part for 'Drishyam,' there will be no way that a new character from other films may appear in it.'
Jeethu Joseph added that if there is the inclusion of any other film characters in the third part, then 'Drishyam' will lose its charm. 'Drishyam is George Kutty's. Maybe the character Sahadevan can return, because he is already in the universe and not an outsider.' He said that he doesn't want to look at the market value possibilities when he is writing a story organically.

CBFC blocks release of Suresh Gopi's Janaki vs State of Kerala, demands title change: ‘Cannot name character who suffered assault after Goddess Sita'

After demanding several cuts in Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par, CBFC has turned its attention to Malayalam film JSK: Janaki vs State of Kerala, starring Union Minister and actor Suresh Gopi. Directed by Pravin Narayanan, the film centers on the legal battle of a woman named Janaki, who fights against the state following an assault. However, the censor board has now objected to the character name's Janaki. The CBFC stated that the character's name is an alternate name for Goddess Sita and, therefore, should not be associated with a character who undergoes assault in the film. The news was confirmed by the film's director Pravin Narayanan on his Facebook handle. In a post, the director said CBFC has denied a screening certificate for the movie and it would not be released on its scheduled date, June 27. Meanwhile, Film Employees Federation of Kerala (FEFKA)'s General Secretary B Unnikrishnan has reacted to the censor board's objection to the film title, JSK: Janaki vs State of Kerala. Unnikrishnan told PTI, 'It is said by the Board that Goddess Sita's name cannot be given to the woman character who suffered assault.' He added, 'They have not received any written information in this regard. A show-cause notice is yet to be received.'

In this circumstances, it would be tough to choose a name for characters belonging to the Hindu religion, as the majority of them would be epithets of Gods or Goddesses.' The censor board's objection has raised many eyebrows, including that of Kerala's General Education Minister V Sivankutty who took to his Facebook account to take a dig at CFBC, questioning, 'Censor Board or senseless Board?' Apart from Suresh Gopi, JSK: Janaki vs State of Kerala also stars Anupama Parameswaran, Shruthi Ramachandran, Divya Pillai, Baiju Santhosh, Kottayam Ramesh and Shobi Thilakan.
