Nadirshah set to direct the comedy thriller ‘Once Upon a Time in Kochi’ featuring Mubin Raffi’s debut

Director Rafi's son, Mubin Raffi, is all set to step into the limelight with his debut in Nadirshah's upcoming directorial venture, titled ‘Once Upon a Time in Kochi’, as officially announced by the makers on the last day. The unveiling came with a poster capturing the essence of Kochi’s bustling cityscape, setting the stage for this comedy thriller.

Helmed by Nadirshah, the film's script is penned by Raffi himself. 'Once Upon a Time in Kochi' promises a blend of comedy and suspense, with actors Arjun Ashokan and Shine Tom Chacko playing pivotal roles. Adding to the ensemble, Devika Sanjay will grace the screen as the female lead.


The title announcement poster features Kochi’s metropolitan charm, adorned with the presence of metro trains, hinting at the city’s vibrant essence that will unfold in the narrative. Shaji Kumar takes charge of the cinematography, while the music composition is entrusted to Hesham Abdul Wahab. Editing responsibilities fall into the capable hands of Shameer Muhammed.

Notably, this collaboration marks the first venture between Nadirshah and Raffi, heightening expectations for an engaging cinematic experience. For Nadirshah, whose previous directorial 'Eesho' starring Jayasurya failed to make a significant impact at the box office, this film holds promise in delivering a compelling storyline and entertaining plot.
