Jude Anthany discovered the actor in Renji Panicker!

Jude Anthany

Joseph's second film '

Oru Muthassi Gadha

' is just out and has been amassing some great responses.

Just as in his debut flick, Jude lined up some of the popular directors of Malayalam in his second film too, such as Renji Panicker and Lal Jose. Jude, who is also inching towards a sought-after comedy actor tag in Malayalam, is often credited for bringing out the acting talent in scriptwriter - director Renji Panicker. Apparently, the man behind many powerpacked dialogues of Malayalam cinema was a little hesitant when Jude approached him with the offer to act in 'Ohm Shanti Oshana', first. However, his portrayal of Dr Mathew Devasya, who was the father character of heroine Nazriya, became quite a hit in the industry that Renji Panicker ended up changing his track to acting rather than writing, post the film.

The director has brought in the 'wacky-scientist-cum-doctor' character in 'Oru Muthassi Gadha' too, which adds to the humour element of the film. Rajini Chandy plays the lead character in OMG, which is the story of a 65-year-old muthassi who keeps everyone in her family on toes.
