The movie also features Tovino Thomas, Abhimanyu Singh, Indrajith Sukumaran, Manju Warrier, and several others.

Director Prithviraj Sukumaran earlier opened up about the challenges faced during its production. The film, starring
Mohanlal
was filmed across various international settings such as Turkey, France, London, Yemen, Senegal, Iraq, and China.

Prithviraj Sukumaran disclosed that locating perfect settings for filming posed the greatest difficulty. According to the ‘Salaar’ star, it required traveling across the globe over a span of two years just to pinpoint the suitable spots for movie production.

When talking to ANI, he mentioned, “The primary obstacle was filming on actual sites across the globe. It consumed approximately two years of my time searching for suitable places worldwide to capture all the shots. This part required considerable effort.”

The director additionally addressed the difficulties involved in relocating a substantial crew across different cities and nations. He went on, saying, “Once we had identified these locations, transporting this sizable team from one place to another worldwide proved to be incredibly challenging. The logistics of shifting such a large group between urban areas both domestically and internationally were, without a doubt, our greatest hurdle.”

Prithviraj Sukumaran commended his production crew, which encompasses producer Antony Perumbavoor, line producers Suresh Balaje and George Pius, creative director Nirmal Sahadev, and associate director Vava.

“However, full credit goes to my fantastic production team, particularly my producer Antony Perumbavoor, line producers Suresh Balaje and George Pius, creative director Nirmal Sahadev, and associate director Vava. From a director’s standpoint, everything went incredibly smoothly; it felt as though the entire movie flowed seamlessly, much like finely-tuned machinery. Yet, I’m certain all these individuals were putting in round-the-clock efforts behind the scenes to make this possible,” stated Prithviraj.

suggests that this boosts the film’s likelihood of success due to its wider distribution and broader audience reach.

He stated, “Prithviraj mentioned that, considering a Malayalam film, this project has an enormous budget. Additionally, we spent two years preparing for it. However, we have experience with such productions.”

He went on, “However, the likelihood of such movies being produced has increased significantly today. If one succeeds, it could be hugely successful because these days we refer to them as pan-Indian films. With choices expanding into languages like Tamil and Telugu, previously those opportunities were limited. Yet, with Empuraan, we generated substantial buzz, positioning it for major impact.”

According to the trailer, the latter half of the movie explores themes of social-political drama with
