Controversy during the release of the title poster

The film’s title poster had caused controversy earlier when VHP leader Prajeesh Viswanath threatened Prithviraj and the makers. In a Facebook (now Meta) post, Prajeesh warned them to be cautious while making any film that could tarnish the image of deity Guruvayoorappan.

Prithviraj is currently directing the sequel to the 2019 movie Lucifer titled Empuraan, starring Mohanlal. It is a big-budget film, and Prithviraj will reprise his role as Zayed Masood in the sequel.
