Mohanlal’s Barroz set pics leaked, check out the production stills from the star’s 3D directorial debut

Mohanlal's Barroz is a 3D children's fantasy

Mohanlal plays a 400-year-old 'ghost' who guards Vasco Da Gama's treasure in the film, which is a 3D chidren's fantasy, scripted by My Dear Kuttichathan director Jijo Punnoose.

Santosh Sivan praises Mohanlal's vision for the film

In an earlier interview with us, the film's cinematographer Santosh Sivan told us, “Mohanlal likes to do things his way and that will reflect when you watch Barroz. It’s a visual film that doesn’t have a conventional story. It’s got magical realism, 3D and is VFX heavy; that’s why it needs more time and effort.”

New pics offer a closer look at Mohanlal's get-up in Barroz

The leaked pics from the sets also show the get-up of Mohanlal's titular character. While the actor had intially sported a look with overgrown hair and beard, he decided to go for the tonsured get-up after the second lockdown. This has also won praise from the fans and the latest pics also show that he will sport a tattoo on his head for good measure. 

Mohanlal has created a magical world for Barroz

Being a children's fantasy and that too a 3D film from the industry that broke new grounds in Indian cinema with My Dear Kuttichathan, people were anxious about the world of Barroz. The first stills from the film reveal an upside down world and the art team seems to have outdone themselves with the set design.  

Mohanlal as a warrior and protector in Barroz

Mohanlal's costume also hints that he will play a warrior and a protector. The movie revolves around the relationship between the 'ghost' and a girl, who is touted to be the rightful heir to the treasure he guards.
