The controversy centres around Vineeth, an Ernakulam resident, who alleges that the filmmakers obtained Rs 3.20 crores from him under suspicious circumstances.
The motion poster made its debut through the social media pages of prominent actors Mohanlal, Mammootty, Prithviraj, and Manju Warrier.
Sanal claimed that Tovino is an insecure actor and prevented the film's release as he feared that his co-actor Sudev Nair outshone him in the movie.
According to Saji Nanthiyattu, the film director stands to lose a lot financially, if the producer decides to take him to court regarding the unauthorised release of the movie.
The director had alleged that Tovino, who was also the producer of the movie, did not take any efforts to ensure an OTT release for the movie.
Tovino took to social media, urging people to hear both sides of the story before arriving at a conclusion.
Sanal claims that the actor showed reluctance to release the movie, in which he plays the lead role and is also a production partner, due to concerns about his status as a rising star.
Lal Jr employs some of the tropes that were part of his earlier works.

Responding to the row, Sunil Kumar said that he clicked the pic with the actor while visiting him at a film location in Thrissur.
