Directed by Dominic Arun, this ambitious fantasy entertainer is produced by Dulquer Salmaan's Wayfarer Films and is set for an Onam release on August 28, 2025.
The teaser, which was released on Dulquer Salmaan's birthday, has been well-received for its impressive visuals and fresh concept, hinting at a potential genre-defining project for the industry.
The film also stars Naslen K. Gafoor in a significant role.

To ensure authenticity, Shane and his co-star Shanthanu Bhagyaraj underwent a month of training with a kabaddi coach.[9] The film also features filmmaker Alphonse Puthren in the role of a gangster.
This diverse lineup of films, ranging from a heartwarming drama and a romantic comedy to a superhero flick and a sports actioner, promises a cinematic feast for audiences during the festive Onam season.
