Devalokam (Malayalam: ദേവലോകം, English Translation: Abode of Gods) is a 1979 unfinished Malayalam film directed by well known writer M. T. Vasudevan Nair.[1] Actor Mammootty appeared in his first lead role in this film.[2][3] The film was produced by Janasakthi Films.[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]
