First Review on Dileep's Christmas Release - Spanish Masala

Dileep's latest film "Spanish Masala" is all set for a Christmas release. The film has been directed by Lal Jose, and is produced by Noushad under the banner of "Big Screen".

The film has been extensively shot in Spain, as the plot of the movie is based there. There would be only 2 days of shooting in Kerala. The cast of the film include Dileep, Kunchacko Boban, Biju Menon, Kala Ranjini, Vinaya Prasad, Nelson and Gopalan. Oh.. I almost forgot to mention the actress for the film. The leading lady in the film is Kavya Madhavan oops!! I got that wrong. The heroine for the film is an Austrian born actress Daniela Zacherl. She is a professional hip-hop dancer and a ballet dancer, apart from which she has acted in a couple of short films and music videos. The rest of the crew is mainly from Europe.

The film tells the story of a Malayali mimicry artist who comes to Spain with his group of mimicry artists. He wants to start a new life in Spain and runs away from the troupe, to illegally migrate to Spain. In search of a job, he lands with the job of a chef for the Spanish ambassador due to his talent for cooking. He later falls in love with the Ambassadors daughter, and the rest of the film tells how the marry each other. The whole plot of the film is based on how food helps in uniting two cultures together. All in all, the film is a comedy packed and entertainment is guaranteed as is most Dileep films we have seen.

Some of the well known Spanish masala, such as the Tomatina festival, bull-fighting, flamenco dancing add some local Spanish touch to the film. The films script has been written by Benny P Nayarambalam and the music has been done by Vidyasagar. It has been heard that the producer and chef Noushad himself had blessed the film with this tasty title. Hoping that the film is as tasty as the title itself...
