After a blockbuster run in the theatres, makers of L2 Empuraan have announced the OTT release of their action film.
Produced by Lyca Production, Sree Gokulam Movies and Aashirvas Cinemas and helmed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, L2 Empuraan will release on JioHostar on April 24, 2025.
As a sequel to the successful film Lucifer, L2: Empuraan stars Mohanlal, Indrajith Sukumaran, Manju Warrier, Saniya Iyappan, Arjun Das, Saikumar, Suraj Venjaramoodu, and Baiju Santhosh.
Despite being a blockbuster, L2 Empuraan found itself in some difficulties such as its portrayal of the alleged Gujarat riots. The makers were asked to release some portions of the film.
L2 Empuraan is a natural sequel to the 2019 blockbuster Lucifer. In Empuraan, Mohanlala returned as Khureshi-Ab'raam, aka Stephen Nedumpally. Prithviraj reprised his role as Zayed Masood,
L2 Empuraan was released in five languages and in less than a month earned Rs. 105 cr nett in India, Sacnilk.com reported.
L2 Empuraan has also become the highest-grossing Malayalam film of all-time and the second highest-grossing Indian film of the year.
Besides the audience, L2 Empuraan has also been appreciated by the critics for its technical and performance aspects. The film has in majority received a decent to positive reception.
As announced earlier in 2019, the Lucifer films will be a trilogy. The third part of Lucifer will explore a much darker theme in the series, as the filmmaker Prithviraj Sukumaran confirmed in several interviews.
