The first look gives me 'Now You See Me' vibes, but I hope it's not just copying Hollywood. Malayalam industry is doing great original content these days. Bijibal music is always a plus. Let's wait and see.

Asif Ali is a versatile actor, but his recent films have been mixed. 'Mirage' didn't do great. Hope 'Houdini' brings him back to form. A magician action film could be a fresh concept in Malayalam. All the best to the team! 👏

Summer 2026 is too far away! 😩 But the poster looks amazing. Asif Ali is charming, and a magician role will suit him well. I'm excited for the music by Bijibal—always a treat. Waiting eagerly!

Good to see Asif Ali trying something different. But I hope the director G Prajeshsen delivers a solid script. Magic-based films can be tricky—needs good VFX and storytelling. Fingers crossed for a hit! 🤞

The poster is intriguing—love the contrast between showmanship and deeper layers. Asif Ali is a very underrated actor in my opinion. Supporting cast like Guru Somasundaram is a big plus. Hope this becomes a memorable film. 🎬✨
