Chennai, Nov 13
The makers of director Akhil Sathyan's eagerly awaited horror comedy, 'Sarvam Maya', featuring actor Nivin Pauly in the lead, have now announced that the shooting of the film has been wrapped up.
Taking to his X timeline, Nivin Pauly said, "It's a WRAP. Get ready to go "Delulu" in theatres this Christmas. Sarvam Maya #SarvamMayaMovie #SarvamMaya #Akhilsathyan #Fireflyfilms #PrietyMukundhan"
A teaser released by the makers recently has only added to the excitement of fans and film buffs.
The teaser released shows Nivin Pauly investigating every single room of a traditional house on a night when a thunderstorm threatens to break out. It is evident that he wants to be doubly sure that there is nobody else in the premises. He looks under the bed, at the ceiling, and into cupboards, reassuring himself saying,"Okay". The teaser also shows him spending time happily with Aju Varghese on a beautiful morning.
For the unaware, Nivin Pauly plays the lead in director Akhil Sathyan's upcoming horror-comedy 'Sarvam Maya'. The film, which has triggered huge expectations, will release for Christmas in December this year.
Sources had told IANS that Priety Mukundhan, who impressed with her fantastic performance in the recently released Pan-Indian film 'Kannappa', plays the female lead in this entertainer.
Apart from Nivin Pauly and Priety Mukhundan, the horror comedy will also feature Aju Varghese in a pivotal role.
Sources had told IANS in July that the unit had already shot for around 30 days and that its major schedules were at Ernakulam and Palakkad in Kerala.
Akhil Sathyan, the director of the film, is the son of one of India's legendary filmmakers Sathyan Anthikad and has delivered critically acclaimed films like Paachuvum Albhuthavilakkum.
Music for 'Sarvam Maya' is by Justin Prabhakaran and art direction is by the very experienced Rajeevan. Cinematography for the film is by Sharan Velayudhan Nair, who was also the cameraman for the critically acclaimed 'Sookshmadarshini'.
Nivin Pauly playing the lead in this horror comedy is bound to further thrill his fans who are already excited about the actor playing the antagonist in the Tamil film 'Benz'.

Nivin Pauly and Aju Varghese together again! Their chemistry in previous films was amazing. Hope this horror comedy delivers both scares and laughs. Christmas release timing is perfect for family audiences.
While I'm excited about the film, I hope they don't rely too much on jump scares. Malayalam cinema has shown we can do horror with psychological depth. Still, with this cast and crew, expecting something special!
The crew looks solid - Justin Prabhakaran for music and Rajeevan for art direction! Traditional Kerala house setting in horror always gives me chills. Perfect Christmas treat with family! ðŸ ✨
Interesting to see Nivin exploring different genres. After his serious roles, a horror comedy should showcase his versatility. The "Delulu" caption has me curious about the tone of the film!
Priety Mukundhan was brilliant in Kannappa! Good to see her getting more opportunities. Hope she gets a substantial role and not just a decorative presence. The female lead in horror comedies often gets sidelined.
