Mamta Mohandas , one of the busiest actress in Telugu these days, has now forayed into the Kannada film industry.
Her film ‘Gooli’ with Sudeep in the lead opened to record collections grossing a whopping 3 crore in the first week of its release – a new record in the Kannada industry.
Sudeep plays the role of a don in this film about mafia gangs.
Anup Rubens who scored the music for ‘Jai’ scored the music for ‘Gooli’.
The film is now being remade in Tamil. Surya or Vijay will play the lead roles in the remake.
‘Gooli’ has Mamta playing a rich college student Ramya who develops a liking for Gooli (Sudeep) and eventually even decides to marry him.
Though turned down at first, Gooli later reciprocates her love for him. Ramya now tries to take on the tough task of reforming Gooli, and the film ends in an amazing climax, sending a powerful message of peace.
Mamta is impressive in the song sequences, though she is found wanting in many critical scenes.
