"The captai⛄n of the ship, Lijo has created a grand spectacle, a glimpse of which the audience will be able to see in this teaser," Mohanlal said.

Lijo Jose Pellissery said: “For me, the process of finalising a them🌞e doesn't originate from the pressure to create the next big hit; it's a natural progression.

“The basic idea of 'Malaikottai Vaaliban' began germinating within me a couple of years ago💛 and then metamorphosed into a comprehensive plot.

“A writer like Rafeeq expande𒈔d that world, and it was only then that we realised Lalettan (Mohanlal) wa꧋s the perfect fit for that role.”

𓄧“As a long-time acquaintance of Mohanlal, when I d🥂ecided to foray into filmmaking, I naturally wanted to have him in the lead role.

“When a talented director like Lijo joins hands with Mohanlal, we can expect an entertainer that the people will love for sure,” says Shibu Ba🌄by John.
