Unni Mukundan's 'Marco 2' Shelved
Kochi, June 15 - Actor Unni Mukundan's action thriller Marco proved to be one of the biggest blockbusters in the history of Malayalam cinema with the worldwide collection of over 100 crores. However, despite the big box office success, the movie also brought criticism for the actor.
Marco attracted huge controversy and negativity for its violent nature, which many believe was below the belt and also put CBFC under scrutiny for passing the film. Despite all the noise surrounding the movie, it emerged as a huge box office success, leading the makers to announce Marco, with a promise that they would be extra careful in depicting the violence.



There was a huge anticipation for the sequel among its targeted audience; however, in a surprising turn of events, Marco 2 has officially been dropped. Confirming the same, Unni Mukundan responded to a fan's comment on Instagram that the film has been shelved as there was too much negativity around it.



"Apologies, but I have dropped plans to continue the Marco series. Too much negativity around the project. I'll try my best to bring something bigger and better than Marco. Thanks for all the love and positivity. Cheers", the actor said.



Marco was directed by Haneef Adeni and produced by Cubes Entertainments. The plot follows Marco Jr (Unni), a ruthless gangster and the adopted son of the Adattu crime family, who goes on a bloody rampage after the brutal death of his blind foster brother Victor.
