Mammootty praised Dhanush and Sai Pallavi
Mammootty praised his co-actors and said the film has several stories in it. “Hillside stories about common people, Sai Pallavi’s story, Mr. Dhanush’s story, etc. I will not say,” he said in a statement.
“I thought I would get some tips from the actors in the film. Sai Pallavi has a flickering expression, Dhanush’s character is extraordinary, and it will be one of the best performances,” he added.

Mammootty has previously appeared in Tamil films such as “Mounam Sammadham”, which was his Tamil debut, “Kandukondain Kandukondain” and “Peranbu”, among others.
“After 7 years, I am doing a Tamil film. My talk will be fun, but the film will be serious. It will touch your skin,” said the actor.
