Pan-India release is ambitious but necessary these days. Hope they don't compromise the core Malayalam storytelling essence just to appeal to wider audiences. Joju has proved his versatility time and again though!
As someone who recently discovered Malayalam cinema through OTT platforms, I'm thrilled about this! Urvasi's performance in Ullozhukku was mind-blowing. More Indian audiences need to experience such brilliant actors.
The technical team looks solid - Madhu Neelakandan's cinematography combined with Midhun Mukundan's music? 🔥 But I hope the story lives up to the hype. Recent pan-India films have been hit or miss.
Urvasi amma looking so graceful as always! 700 films is no joke - she's truly the Meryl Streep of Indian cinema. Hope this film gives her another national award worthy performance.
Joju in white lungi for pooja ceremony 😂 Only he can pull off that effortless style! On serious note, after Iratta and Thug Life, expectations are sky high. Hope the director does justice to these powerhouse performers.
