Barroz postponed again: No Onam release for Mohanlal’s directorial debut

Mohanlal kickstarted the shooting of Barroz, the 3D fantasy film which is supposed to mark his directorial debut, in 2021. However, the highly anticipated project was delayed multiple times due to the coronavirus pandemic, and the multiple lockdowns. After the delay, Mohanlal resumed Barroz and reshot all the previously filmed portions with a new cast, after the original cast exited. Even though Barroz was supposed to hit the theatres in September 2024 as an Onam special release, the release has been postponed again.
