Bhavana Studio wanted a project with Nazriya, Basil Joseph: Girish AD

Director Girish AD said in an interview with The Cue that he was initially approached by Bhavana Studios with the idea of directing Nazriya Nazim and Basil Joseph. But in response, he said he would have to change Premalu's entire script because that would have involved 30-year-olds, so he would prefer to move forward with this.

During the press conference promoting Premalu, actor and producer Dileesh stated that Girish AD, the film's director, was the sole reason he chose to produce the movie, considering the latter's prior productions, which have garnered positive reviews from audiences for their compelling narratives.

Rave response for Premalu

According to recent reports, in just the first four days of its theatrical release, the romantic comedy has already made a worldwide gross of Rs. 7.5 crore. It is obvious that the word-of-mouth promotion contributed to the film's outstanding box office performance, despite releasing along with Tovino Thomas’s Anweshippin Kandethum. In response to the strongly favourable feedback from the audience, the producers decided to add more shows to theatres starting February 10.
