The shoot for the film was kickstarted last year, but due to the Covid outbreak the shoot was temporarily stopped and as a result, several of the actors backed out from the project due to date clashes and other reasons. Several portions of the film which was shot earlier also needed to be re-shot as said by Mohanlal in an interview with online media.

As per the reports, the ‘

The expectations for ‘Barroz: Guardian of D’Gama’s Treasure’ among the audience are really high due to several reasons. One such reason would be that the renowned director- cinematographer Santosh Sivan will be cranking the lens for the film and the next reason is that the script of the film is penned down by Jijo Punnoose who is best known for India’s first 3D film ‘My Dear Kuttichathan’ which was released in the year 1984.
