Tovino Thomas’s ‘Minnal Murali’, the most awaited movie in Mollywood directed by Basil Joseph, will be released on December 24 on Netflix, on the eve of Christmas. Netflix has also unveiled three Minnal Murali photos that give us a look at Tovino Thomas’s character and his early superhero look.
The film, directed by Basil Joseph, is set in the 90s and chronicles the journey of Jaison (Thomas), an ordinary man who is struck by lightning that grants him special powers instead of killing him. He becomes the superhero Minnal Murali.
Initially, Minnal Murali was slated for a theatrical release. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the makers decided to go the OTT way. In addition to Thomas, Minnal Murali also stars Guru Somasundaram, Harisree Ashokan and Aju Varghese. Basil Joseph directs off a screenplay written by Arun Anirudhan and newcomer Justin Mathew.
