Superstar Mammootty is a hot property in Malayalam film industry. He is the Superstar of Malayalam for about two decades now. He was expected to start this new year in a stylish manner, with the film Love in Singapore. Love in Singapore was considered to be a hillarious comedy film by the hit directors Rafi Mecartin. This new film was produced by Rafi under the banner MHM productions and Navneet Kaur was the heroine of the movie.Unfortunately, Love in Singapore failed to rose upto the expectations of the audience. The film is now already in the losing propositions in the Box Office. The film have started well with the big initial weekend collections, mainly due to the colorful posters and the initial hype. But after the initial pulling, the film have settled down with a net lose of about 50% percent or more. It is certainly a fact that the film will not end up as a winner at the end.
According to the trade analysts, the film is totally a ridiculous and idiotic plot that drives you crazy. Rafi and Mecartin have delivered a dud with Love in Singapore, that is nothing at all as a film. With a look on how the film have performed so far, the film will at the most end up as an average earner. The movie will find it hard to reach up to the status of a hit.
Surely, Superstar Mammootty will have to look for a much better script in the near future itself, because the films that released with him in the lead, in the recent past worked against him in all manner.
