Disney+ Hotstar has announced that Ajayante Randam Moshanam (ARM), starring Tovino Thomas in the lead, will premiere on the platform on November 8. Directed by debutant Jithin Laal, this period epic spans multiple timelines, with Tovino portraying three characters—Maniyan, Kunjikelu, and Ajayan—each set in a different era. In addition to Malayalam, the film will be available in dubbed versions in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Hindi. It was released theatrically on September 12 in both 3D and 2D formats.

Upon its release, ARM received mostly positive reviews from both critics and audiences, and the makers claimed it has grossed over Rs 100 crore at the global box office. Telugu actor Krithi Shetty made her Malayalam debut in the film, which also features Aishwarya Rajesh, Surabhi Lakshmi, Rohini, Basil Joseph, Jagadish, and Harish Uthaman in prominent roles.

A review excerpt from Cinema Express noted, "If a film manages to transport us to a new world, even if only for two hours, isn't that a success? This is precisely why ARM is that much-needed breath of fresh air amid Malayalam's overpopulated realistic dramas and generic thrillers."
