\n\tIndian National Film Award-winning actor Parvathy Thiruvothu<\/a> is set to spearhead Don Palathara<\/a>\u2018s next directorial venture, co-starring the acclaimed filmmaker-actor Dileesh Pothan. <\/p>\n

\n\tThiruvothu, whose performance in \u201cTake Off\u201d (2017) earned her a National Film Award and best actor at the International Film Festival of India, brings a stellar track record to the project. The actor has delivered acclaimed performances in films including \u201cBangalore Days\u201d (2014), \u201cEnnu Ninte Moideen\u201d (2015), \u201cCharlie\u201d (2015), \u201cUyare\u201d (2019) and \u201cVirus\u201d (2019).

\n\tThe project marks Thiruvothu\u2019s first collaboration with both Palathara and Pothan, two of the most respected creative voices in Malayalam-language cinema \u2013 India\u2019s flagship film industry in terms of innovative content \u2013 today. Though details about the storyline are currently under wraps, the film is touted to be an emotionally power-packed drama that will be shot extensively across the southern Indian state of Kerala and is set to commence principal photography imminently.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cDon Palathara\u2019s movies hold up a mirror to how we live and love, often without judgment or noise. To step into that kind of world as an actor is very liberating,\u201d Thiruvothu said. \u201cHis films have a powerfully meditative quality. He invites us to actively engage in reflecting on how we live. As an actor, I find that kind of space exhilarating because it demands that you unlearn performance and simply be. This is also incredibly challenging.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe actor added: \u201cWorking with him has been on my wishlist for a while and I\u2019m thrilled that this project came my way. And to share the screen with Dileesh, someone whose creative sensitivity I\u2019ve admired for years, feels like an opportunity to be a student again.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tPalathara\u2019s cinema is known for its subtle emotional layers and exploration of human relationships. His previous work includes \u201cFamily,\u201d which had its world premiere at the International Film Festival Rotterdam in 2023<\/a>, as well as \u201cEverything Is Cinema\u201d (2021), \u201cJoyful Mystery\u201d (2021), \u201c1956, Central Travancore\u201d (2019), \u201cVith\u201d (2017) and debut feature \u201cShavam\u201d (2015). His films often tackle complex social realities with a meditative approach that eschews judgment.<\/p>\n

\n\tPothan, meanwhile, stands as one of Malayalam cinema\u2019s most formidable forces. As a director, his debut \u201cMaheshinte Prathikaaram\u201d (2016) won the best feature film in Malayalam Award at the National Film Awards, as did his follow-up \u201cThondimuthalum Driksakshiyum\u201d (2017). Both films, starring Fahadh Faasil, set new benchmarks for storytelling in Malayalam cinema. As an actor, Pothan is praised for his restrained yet impactful screen presence across more than 60 films.<\/p>\n

\n\tThiruvothu is also in \u201cStorm,\u201d Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan\u2019s debut production<\/a> for Prime Video. The high-stakes thriller series, created and directed by Ajitpal Singh (\u201cTabbar,\u201d \u201cFire in the Mountains\u201d), features an ensemble cast of strong women protagonists and is produced by Roshan\u2019s HRX Films.
