Mohanlal and Shobana’s characters Shanmukhan and Lalitha have their own Instagram accounts. Both accounts feature promotional images, adding an interactive element to the film’s campaign. ‘Thudarum’ is written by K.R. Sunil and co-scripted by Tharun Moorthy and Sunil. Touted to be a family drama movie, the expectations are quite high for the movie. A major milestone for Mohanlal, it marks his 360th film. The last time the duo shared the screen was in Mambazhakkalam (2004) and the action flick ‘Sagar Alias Jacky Reloaded’ which was directed by Amal Neerad. On the other hand, his directorial debut film ‘Barroz’ failed to impress the audiences. ETimes review for the fantasy film reads, “From dialogues to dubbing choices, especially the Malayalam accent for some characters, would make one wonder about how informed these choices were. The hand movements, actions, etc., seemed so out of place and comical to an extent”
