After his much-acclaimed breakthrough feature Aavasavyuham, Krishand is next helming a film titled Purusha Pretham (The Male Ghost). The film, starring Darshana Rajendran and Prasanth Alexander in major roles, is set for its premiere on SonyLIV on March 24. Recently, the streamer released a teaser, which they introduced as a 'glance of a crime noir set in the wetlands of Kochi'.

Krishand had earlier told us that Purusha Pretham is a police procedural comedy featuring a toxic cop. Ajith Haridas has scripted the film based on a story by Manu Thodupuzha. The film will see the director reuniting with Aavasavyuham actors Rahul Rajagopal, Sreejith Babu and Sreenath Babu. Jagadish, Devaki Rajendran, James Eliya, Jeo Baby, Eika Dev, Sanju Sivaram and Manoj Kana are also part of the cast.

Purusha Pretham is backed by Mankind Cinemas (Jomon Jacob, Dijo Augustine), Einstin Media (Einstin Zac Paul), Symmetry cinema (Vishnu Rajan, Sajin Raj) and Prasanth Alexander.
