We are thrilled to start filming and are looking forward to make a film that the audience enjoys"  

Director Deeno Dennis says, "This film is the culmination of a lifelong dream to work with Mammootty sir and this script gave me the opportunity to do so. I feel thrilled as it is the privilege of a lifetime to direct someone of his stature and experience. Together, all of us are hoping to create movie magic and film for the ages because Mammootty sir and his fans deserve nothing less than a cinematic milestone."

 Co-Producer Jinu V Abraham adds, "This is a very special film for us because we are working with none other than a legend like Mammootty. Hopefully, we will create a film that will be embraced by not just audiences in Kerala but beyond."
