Exclusive! Yashoda star Unni Mukundan renders three songs in Shafeekkinte Santosham

Unni Mukundan is gearing up for back-to-back releases in the next few weeks. The actor, whose latest Telugu movie Yashoda hit theatres on November 11, is also set for the release of his second production venture Shafeekkinte Santosham, which is helmed by Anup Pandalam.

In a recent interview with OTTplay, Unni talked about how a film of this genre was never part of his line-up and how his first film this year, Meppadiyan, changed the audience’s perception.

“Be it Shafeekkinte Santosham or any other romantic comedy, these weren’t even part of our plan. This film is special. After Meppadiyan, I am again producing this family comedy. I have rendered three songs in it as well as written the lyrics for a particular track. I believe it will be a neat film that the family audience can enjoy,” he says.

The movie was recently cleared by CBFC with a clean U rating and is expected to hit theatres by the end of this month or in December. The makers are yet to officially announce its release date.

Apart from Unni in the titular role, Shafeekkinte Santosham also has Divya Pillai, Athmiya Rajan, Shehin Siddique, Mithun Ramesh, Sminu Sijo, Boban Samuel and Jordi Poonjar in pivotal roles. The film also has about 100 theatre artistes as part of the cast.

Meanwhile, Unni’s latest movie Yashoda, which has Samantha Ruth Prabhu in the lead, has him essaying the role of a doctor. The film, helmed by Hari and Harish, also has Varalaxmi Sarathkumar in a pivotal role.

On Yashoda, Unni had told us that he was intrigued by the film right from the first narration. “I am really looking forward to the release of Yashoda as I believe it will have me in my best Telugu performance. Based on how the character evolves with the story, I think this stands out from my earlier Telugu ventures,” he said.
