Malayalam superstar Mohanlal unveiled the behind-the-scenes video of his upcoming movie, Barroz, on Wednesday. The video provides a glimpse into the extensive effort invested in crafting this fantasy drama.

The promo begins with an animation hinting at Mohanlal's enigmatic character in the film. It portrays a ghost of a man toying with a diminutive individual, who begins to float in the air when a pin piercing his head is removed. While the scene appears painful and cruel, the smaller character displays an unusual resilience. Despite the imposing presence of the giant, there's an underlying sense of playfulness.

While Barroz is expected to hit the big screens this year, Mohanlal has yet to confirm the movie's release date.

On the career front, Mohanlal's last appearance was in director Lijo Jose Pellissery's Malaikottai Vaaliban, a fantasy drama where he portrayed the role of a legendary warrior. However, the film received mixed reviews and underperformed at the box office. Malaikottai Vaaliban is now streaming on Disney+Hotstar.
