While plot details remain tightly under wraps, what we do know is that Mamitha Baiju plays the female lead. The technical team brings together some top talent: Nimish Ravi will helm the visuals as cinematographer, while Navin Nooli takes charge of editing. The music is expected to be composed by GV Prakash Kumar, though an official confirmation is awaited.
