Dabzee, one of the most sought-after singers today in Malayalam cinema, has lent his vocals for the first single from Unni Mukudan's Marco. Titled Blood, this adrenaline-pumping song is composed by Ravi Basrur, best known for his work in the KGF films and Salaar. Vinayak Sasikumar has penned the lyrics, with rap by Rohith Siddappa.

Marco, directed by Haneef Adeni, is the spin-off of Unni Mukundan's character from the Nivin Pauly-led Mikhael (2018). Claimed as the most violent film from Malayalam yet, Marco has Unni playing a cold-blooded gangster's role. Its cast also includes Jagadish, Kabir Duhan Singh, Anson Paul, Arjun Nandakumar, Durva Thaker, Yukti Tareja, Abhimanyu Shammy Thilakan, Ishan Shoukath, Siddique, and Riyaz Khan, among others. On the technical front, the film has cinematography by Chandru Selvaraj, editing by Shameer Muhammed, and action choreography by Kalai Kingson.

Marco is backed by Shareef Muhammed under the banner of Cubes Entertainments in association with Unni’s home production company Unni Mukundan Films. Besides Malayalam, it will have dubbed versions in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Hindi. The makers have confirmed December 20 as the release date.
