The duo now is gearing up for the release of this second film together – Bheeshma Parvam, which is gearing up to hit theatres on March 3. The movie, which has an ensemble cast, has Soubin Shahir, Sreenath Bhasi, Lena, Nadiya Moidu, Veena Nandakumar, Shine Tom Chacko, Jinu Joseph, Farhaan Faasil, Shebin Benson, KPAC Lalitha, Sudev Nair, Nedumudi Venu and Dileesh Pothan in pivotal roles.
