The meetings and discussions to workout the differences between the Kerala Film Producer's Association and the Exhibitors Federation concluded without arriving at an agreement. The Producer's Association refused to accept the Exhibitor's demand for 50% share of theater revenue.
Thus, this Christmas season will be a dry one for Malayalam film lovers as the release of four major movies will be postponed. The movies are Mohanlal's 'Munthirivallikal Thalirkkumbol', Dulquer Salmaan-Sathyan Anthikad team's 'Jomonte Suvisheshangal', Prithviraj's 'Ezra' and Jayasurya-Siddique team's 'Fukri'. According to sources, the discussions will continue and if all goes well, the movies will release December last week or in January.
