The production house announced the project on Wednesday through social media, along with a casting call for the film’s female lead. Further details, including the director, genre and technical crew, are yet to be disclosed.

The yet-to-be-titled film marks Joju’s first collaboration with Kavya Film Company, which has previously bankrolled notable titles such as Rekhachitram, 2018: Everyone Is A Hero, Malikappuram and Mamangam, among others.
