Samantha calls Kaathal- The Core movie of the year

Mammooty's latest outing at the theatres, Kaathal- The Core has been receiving critical acclaim for performances, story and screenplay. On Sunday, actor Samantha took to her official Instagram handle to pen her review of the film. 

Sharing the film's poster she wrote, "Movie of the year. Do yourself a favour and watch this beautiful yet powerful gem of a film. #KaathalTheCore. Mammooty sir you are my hero. I won't be able to get over this performance for a long long time. Jyotika Love you. Jeo Baby, Legendary." (sic) 

Directed by Jeo Baby, the film is backed by Mammootty Kampany. Kaathal marks Jyotika's comeback to Malayalam cinema after over a decade. Her last Malayalam release was the TK Rajeev Kumar directorial Seetha Kalyanam (2009).

The upcoming film is scripted by Adarsh Sukumaran and Paulson Skaria. Kaathal also stars Lalu Alex, Muthumani, Chinnu Chandni, Sudhi Kozhikode, Anagha Akku, and Josi Sijo.

On the technical front, Jeo Baby has retained the same set of technicians from his acclaimed film, The Great Indian Kitchen, which includes cinematographer Salu K Thomas, editor Francis Louis, and music director Mathews Pulickal.
