The teaser of 'Mirage', directed by Jeethu Joseph and starring Asif Ali and Aparna Balamurali, is out now. The one-minute-twenty-second glimpse sets the tone for an intense suspense thriller, building a tense atmosphere where the lead pair appears caught in a troubling situation.
'Mirage' also marks a reunion for Asif Ali and Aparna Balamurali after 'Kishkindha Kaandam'. Earlier this year, Asif’s first release of 2025, 'Rekhachithram', had already emerged as a box-office hit. The upcoming film also features Hakim Shajahan, Hannah Reji Koshy and Sampath in key roles.
The screenplay of 'Mirage' has been co-written by Jeethu Joseph and Srinivas Abrol, based on a story by Aparna R Tarakad. Satheesh Kurup handles cinematography, V.S. Vinayak takes charge of editing, and Vishnu Shyam composes the music. Together, they form a technical team well-known to Malayalam cinema audiences for their seamless collaborations.
For Jeethu Joseph, 'Mirage' comes at a particularly busy phase in his career. The filmmaker is currently working on 'Valathu Vashathe Kallan', featuring Biju Menon and Joju George, while also preparing for 'Drishyam 3', the highly anticipated next chapter of his acclaimed franchise, which is set to go on floors this October.
