Producer Antony Perumbavoor Extends Best Wishes

Producer Antony Perumbavoor, a close confidant of Mohanlal and head of Aashirvad Cinemas, shared a nostalgic photograph of himself carrying Vismaya as a child, along with a heartfelt message in Malayalam.

Drawing inspiration from the film’s title Thudakkam (meaning "Beginning"), he expressed his best wishes, saying: "All the best, Maya Kutty!"

A Powerful Team Behind Thudakkam

Director Jude Anthany Joseph, known for hits like Ohm Shanthi Oshaana and the critically lauded 2018—India’s official entry to the Oscars in 2024—is all set to bring his signature storytelling to Thudakkam. With such a seasoned team behind her, Vismaya Mohanlal’s entry into films promises to be an exciting new chapter in Malayalam cinema.
