KOCHI: The makers of the upcoming Mohanlal-starrer Athimanoharam, directed by Tharun Moorthy and produced by Ashiq Usman under the banner of Ashiq Usman Productions, released the film’s first video song on November 1. Titled “Maya Ravanane”, the track has gained significant traction across digital platforms since its launch.
Penned by lyricist B.K. Harinarayanan and composed by Jakes Bejoy, the track features vocals by veteran playback singer M.G. Sreekumar. Designed as an energetic festive number, the song blends high-tempo composition with rhythmic vocals to appeal to a wide audience demographic.
Visually, the song offers a glimpse into the police procedural aspects and family drama elements of the movie. The release of the track serves as a precursor to the film’s theatrical release, scheduled for December 24 as a Christmas release.
Athimanoharam revolves around the professional and personal life of a police Sub-Inspector named Loulajan P.C., played by Mohanlal. The film marks the onscreen reunion of Mohanlal and Meera Jasmine, who plays the female lead. The ensemble cast features Lalu Alex, Mukesh, Jagadish, Manoj K. Jayan, Irshad Ali, and Pramod Veliyanad, alongside younger actors such as Sajeevan, Shreenath Babu, Kiran Peethambaran, Viji Viswanath, Bhama Arun, and Prarthana. The screenplay has been written by Ratheesh Revi, known for his work in Ishq and Alappuzha Gymkhana.
The technical team behind the project includes cinematographer Shajikumar, editor Shafeeq V.B., and audiographer Vishnu Govind. Gokul Das handles art direction, while Ronex Xavier and Mashar Hamsa manage makeup and costume design respectively. Actor Binoo Pappu functions as the co-director, with Mirashkhan as chief associate director and Sudharman Vallikkunnu as production controller.
