Beyond Malayalam, the film has also become a major pan-Indian hit in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, and Kannada. The story drew inspiration from the folklore of Kalliyankattu Neeli, a legendary figure in Kerala’s history. The film also stars Chandu Salimkumar, Arun Kurian, Sandy Master, and Nishanth Sagar, among others. Distribution in Kerala was handled by Wayfarer Films.
