Tharun Moorthy Shares Update on Social Media
Expressing gratitude to his team, Tharun wrote on social media, "Yet another perfect schedule wrapped up! Through rain, heat, and every challenge along the way, my team has been in terrific form. We’ve said goodbye to so many beautiful locations, and many outstanding actors have successfully completed their parts." He disclosed that nearly 80 percent of the filming has been completed, with only a few days of shooting remaining. Building anticipation, he added, "Just a few more days to go, and the excitement is building every single day. Can’t wait for all of you to experience the Athimanohara energy, and Athimanohara vibe of this film and see what we’ve created together with our Lalettan." The title 'Athimanoharam' translates to "very beautiful."
Reunion After 'Thudarum' Success
This film marks another collaboration between Mohanlal and Tharun Moorthy following last year's blockbuster 'Thudarum', which became one of the highest-grossing Malayalam films ever and a major commercial success in Mohanlal's career. The goodwill from that film has raised expectations for 'Athimanoharam'.
Plot and Cast Details
Mohanlal plays a police officer named TS Lovelajan, with Meera Jasmine portraying his wife. Tharun described the project as a blend of "police procedural and family drama," balancing investigation-driven elements with personal relationships. Behind-the-scenes images shared by the director also featured actors Binu Pappu, who appeared in 'Thudarum', and Irshad Ali.
Technical Crew and Production
The screenplay is written by Ratheesh Ravi, and the film is produced by Ashiq Usman under his banner. The technical team includes cinematographer Shaji Kumar, music composer Jakes Bejoy, sound designer Vishnu Govind, and editor Vivek Harshan.
Release Plans
With production nearing completion, attention is expected to shift to promotional campaigns and release plans. Although an official release date has not been announced, the latest update suggests the film will hit theaters soon.
