This is one of our most significant ventures in Malayalam cinema, as its theme, grandeur, and emotional resonance have undeniable universality.

"For me, the process of finalising a theme 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 P S Rafeeque expanded that world, and it was only then that we realised Lalettan (Mohanlal) was the perfect fit for that role," he said.

Malaikottai Vaaliban is scripted by P S Rafeeque, who has earlier worked with Lijo in movies like Nayakan and Amen. The film will be out on January 25.
