The Jayasurya and Aditi Rao Hydari-starrer upcoming Malayalam romantic drama Sufiyum Sujatayum (2020) will have its world premiere on Amazon Prime on 3 July. The makers have promised that the film will offer a visual treat.
Directed by Naranipuzha Shanavas, the film marks the return of Aditi Rao Hydari to Malayalam cinema after 13 years. She had previously acted in 2006 Malayalam film Prajapathi.
It will be the first mainstream Malayalam film to have a direct OTT (over-the-top) release. Vijay Babu has produced the film under the banner Friday Film House.
The film has been shot by cinematographer Anu Moothedath and edited by Deepu Joseph. The music has been composed by M Jayachandran with lyrics penned by Hari Narayan and songs sung by Sudeep Palanad.
Meanwhile, few more Malayalam films might have a direct OTT release as theatres remain shut due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Actor Fahadh Faasil and filmmaker Mahesh Narayanan are joining hands for the third time for a project, titled See You Soon, which will be entirely shot on an iPhone. The shoot for the film began on Sunday, 21 June, in Fahadh’s flat in Kochi, Kerala.
