ALBHUTHADWEEP

'''Albhuthadweep''' (meaning "amazing island") is a Malayalam-language Indian movie, directed by Vinayan. The movie created history by becoming the first Indian movie whose remake rights have been bought by Hollywood ^[1]. Prithviraj Sukumaran and Mallika Kapoor appear in lead roles in the movie. The movie is about a mysterious island where all the men are dwarfs and all the women, normal.
Albudhadweep was released in 2005 and the remake rights were sold almost immediately to Hollywood director Ron Howard who was in India at that time.^[2] Leonardo DiCaprio is going to star in the Hollywood version, and all the 300 dwarfs who starred in the Malayalam version will re-enact their roles in the English version.
