Devalokam (transl. Abode of gods) is an unfinished Malayalam film directed by M. T. Vasudevan Nair in 1979.[1] It had Sabu and Jayamala in the lead roles. Mammootty appeared in his debut credited role. The film was produced by Janasakthi Films.[2][3][4][5][6]
Production
The shooting of the film was done at Palakkad and at that time Mammootty was working as a lawyer at Manjeri court. According to P. N. Menon, as he described in his autobiography Nirakoottukal, Mammootty has to play the character named Pappachan in the film. The shooting was lagged due to financial problems and finally wound up with conflicts among cast and crew due to the lack of money.[7]
