Mohanlal

It stars Mohanlal alongside Roshann Meka, Shanaya Kapoor, and others. Neha Saxena, who also has a pivotal role, expressed excitement about working with Mohanlal again in this period-action drama.

Fans eagerly anticipate Mohanlal's 360th film 'Thudarum' and his 56th collaboration with Shobana.

Industry watchers remain attentive.

Mohanlal's directorial debut film 'Barroz' is now available for streaming on Disney Plus Hotstar in multiple languages including Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, and Kannada. Although the OTT release has received a tepid response, the film primarily targets a younger audience with its fantasy elements and 3D effects. 'Barroz' follows the story of a genie-like character, portrayed by Mohanlal, who guards the treasures of the Portuguese explorer Da Gama's family. The plot is based on the novel 'Barroz: Guardian of D'Gama's Treasures.'
