This will be the first time Lal Jr and the actor will be collaborating. Lal Jr, who had most recently co-directing Tsunami with his father Lal, had previously helmed the superhit Driving License, starring Prithviraj Sukumaran and Suraj Venjaramoodu.

The film has Tovino playing a triple role and has portions set in the 1900s, 1950s and 1990s. Tovino plays three characters – Maniyan, Kunjikelu and Ajayan in the movie, which will go on floors by the end of this year.
