We had reported earlier that Malayalam actors Joju George, Suraj Venjaramoodu, and Alencier Ley Lopez were coming together for a new film titled Narayaneente Moonaanmakkal. On October 23, Wednesday, on the occasion of Joju's birthday, the makers of the film took to their social media to release its first look poster. Apart from the three lead actors, Narayaneente Moonaanmakkal also features Shelly Nabu, Garggi Ananthan, Sajitha Madathil, and Thomas Mathew.
A Family Drama
Narayaneente Moonaanmakkal, written and directed by debutant Sharan Venugopal, is billed as a family drama. Earlier at the 67th National Film Awards, Sharan's diploma film Oru Paathiraa Swapnam Pole, starring Nadiya Moidu and Garrgi Ananthan, won the award for Best Film on Family Values. The 37-minute film, which is available on YouTube, was also screened at many international film festivals, including IFFI and IDSFFK.

The director's feature debut Narayaneente Moonaanmakkal has Appu Prabhakar as the cinematographer, Rahul Raj as the composer and Jyoti Swaroop Panda serving as the editor. The film is produced by Joby George, whose last release was the widely-acclaimed Kishkindha Kaandam, starring Asif Ali, Aparna Balamurali, and Vijayaraghavan in the lead roles. An official trailer and an announcement regarding the film's theatrical release can be expected soon.
