The departing of the incomparable story teller Lohithadas left an unaccomplished project `Bheeshmar'. As planned earlier Mohanlal will do the role of 'Bheeshmar'. Efforts are on to complete the project. Johny Sagarika will produce the film. One of Lohi's friends interested in this screen play will direct the film. Final decision will be taken after consulting with Lohi's family. Lohi completed the screen play two weeks before his death.
The story moves around a scholar named Dr. Siva Prasad. He had doctorate in many languages. Many research students came to him to get his guidance. His main hobby was to do farming with these students. He loved his sister so much and dedicated his life for her. Even he did not marry since he believed that his own family would obstruct to pay more attention for his sister. Like the Bheeshmar in the epic he too carried certain similarities. Lohi casts a debutant to do the role of anti hero. Unni Krishnan, a Gujrath Malyali will do the role. Yester years heroine Menaka's daughter Revathi will be the heroine. Lohithadas introduced a new lyricist K.V Udayan through 'Bheeshmar' . He is Carnatic musician. One of the songs in this film is penned by Lohi himself. The film also gives importance to music.
