We had earlier reported about Tovino Thomas playing the lead in award-winning filmmaker Dr Biju's next, Adrishya Jalakangal. Also starring Nimisha Sajayan and Indrans, the film's post-production works have been completed. Dr Biju, a popular name in the festival circuit, is eyeing an A-list festival slot in 2023 for the film's premiere.

According to the makers, Adrishya Jalakangal is an anti-war film with a layered structure and surrealistic treatment. Set in an imaginary space, the film has Tovino sporting a tanned look.

Recently, while speaking to Variety, Dr Biju said, "Adrishya Jalakangal's script is strongly socially driven and touches on many different aspects and elements of society related to the notion of war. The film intensely explores many emotions and situations like life, death, fear, hope, helplessness, love, hate, dreams, and sanity, particularly focusing on those neglected by a deeply divided and hierarchical society.”

Adrishya Jalakangal is produced by Ellanar Films, Tovino Thomas Production, and Mythri Movie Makers. It has music by two-time Grammy award-winner Rickey Kej.
