Abhilasham, starring Saiju Kurup, Tanvi Ram and Arjun Ashokan, is set to have its digital premiere on Amazon Prime Video on May 23. Outside India, it will stream on Simply South. The film is helmed by Maniyarayile Ashokan director Shamzu Zayba and scripted by Jenith Kachappilly, who previously directed Mariyam Vannu Vilakkoothi.

Abhilasham, a light-hearted romantic drama, has Saiju as Abhilash Kumar, who harbours feelings for his childhood friend Sherin Moosa (Tanvi), but has never mustered the courage to express them. Years later, fate brings back Sherin, now a widow, to Abhilash's life. The narrative explores Abhilash's unspoken love and emotional vulnerability.

Abhilasham also stars Navas Vallikkunnu, Shine Tom Chacko, Uma KP, Binu Pappu, Neeraja Rajendran, Ajisha Prabhakaran, Nimna Fathoomi, Zhinz Shan, and Sheethal Zackaria. The film's technical crew includes cinematographer Sajad Kakku, music director Sreehari K Nair and editor Nimz. It is produced by Ann Sariga Antony and Shankar Das under the banner of Second Show Productions.
