Helmed by Vishnu Sasi Shankar, ‘Malikappuram’ revolves around Kallu, a girl who is unhappy that her pilgrimage to Sabarimala is delayed and decides to go with her friend.

‘Malikappuram’ hit the big screens on December 30, and opened to positive reviews across the state. The film’s popularity made the makers to release the film in Tamil and Telugu on January 26.

In an earlier interview with ETimes, Unni Mukundan said, “‘Malikappuram’ is my biggest hit, not only in terms of numbers but also in elevating my graph as an actor. I am touched by the audience response. There was this elderly gentleman, in his 90s, who said that he will never be able to go to Sabarimala, because of his ill health, but watching the film gave him what he wanted! As an actor, these are the moments you live for.”
