Hello
Lack of super hit movies was dragging the revenues of the industry recently, as production costs of even low budget films skyrocketed.
The film, which was shot largely in Rajasthan, was split into two parts, owing to its length.
He addressed the negative reviews that the movie has been facing ever since its release.
The actress also spoke about director Lijo Jose Pellissery and shared that the unexpected becomes the norm in the cinematic universe of Lijo.
Recently, Lijo shared a cartoon image on his Instagram, resembling a scene from the movie where Mohanlal breaks chains attached to two pillars in a dramatic confrontation with enemies.
Vaaliban's producer, Shibu Baby John, now suggests that political interests are at play behind the negative reception of the movie.
The video showed how much time and effort has gone into the making of the film, which has opened to mixed reviews.
In the midst of the ongoing debate, film critic Baradwaj Rangan shared his perspective on the movie.
At the trailer launch event for the upcoming project Family in Kochi, Anurag Kashyap expressed his admiration for 'Malaikottai Vaaliban,' calling it a great film.
While 'Malaikottai Vaaliban' joins the league of top opening grossers, films like 'Marakkar,' 'Kurup,' 'Odiyan,' 'King of Kotha,' 'Lucifer,' and 'Bheeshma Parvam' still hold the record for the highest numbers on their opening days.
