Usually, film releases are supposed to be a happy & exciting time, but we’re all mourning this irreplaceable loss. Having said that, Nizam ikka would have wanted the film to be out, no matter what. He wouldn’t have it any other way. God bless us!”

Scriptwriter Nizam Rawther passed away on Wednesday, March 6 following a cardiac arrest. He was 49. He died at his residence at Kadammanitta in Pathanamthitta. Nizam has also scripted for films 'Zachariyayude Garbhinikal', 'Bombay Mitayi 'and 'Radio'.

You're the creator of this film, you're the reason it exits today and now 2 days before the release, you're no more. We don't know what to feel anymore.”
