Mohanlal is set to bring his comedic charm back to the big screen with Sathyan Anthikad’s upcoming film, “Hridayapoorvam,” and its newly released teaser offers a humorous glimpse into what’s in store.
Mohanlal’s Comedic Comeback
After delivering two intense blockbusters, “L2: Empuraan” and “Thudarum,” Malayalam superstar Mohanlal is changing gears. He’s reuniting with director Sathyan Anthikad for “Hridayapoorvam,” a light-hearted comedy that promises to be a treat for fans.
The collaboration between Mohanlal and Anthikad has always been much-anticipated, and expectations are soaring for their return after a decade. The recently unveiled teaser aims to keep the excitement building for this fresh take on their classic partnership.
A Peek into ‘Hridayapoorvam’
The 65-second teaser doesn’t give away much of the plot, but it certainly highlights Mohanlal’s beloved comedic side, which audiences have been missing. It’s crafted to showcase the fun world of “Hridayapoorvam” and the signature style of Sathyan Anthikad.
The promo cleverly sets the tone for a humorous and engaging film, reminding viewers of the actor’s versatility beyond action and thrillers.
The Fahadh Faasil Moment
The teaser kicks off with a laugh-out-loud moment between Mohanlal’s character and a North Indian youngster. The excited youth, upon learning Mohanlal is from Kerala, praises Malayalam cinema, stating he’s a massive fan while his girlfriend prefers Bollywood.
The conversation inevitably turns to Fahadh Faasil, whom the youngster affectionately calls “FaFa.” He gushes about films like “Aavesham” and “Kumbalangi Nights,” specifically praising Faasil’s expressive eyes and dramatic performances.
Mohanlal’s character, initially curious, then humorously reminds the young man about “good senior actors” in the industry. However, the youngster remains steadfast in his admiration for “FaFa.” Mohanlal’s witty blessing to the fan, a nod to Fahadh’s iconic “Nannayi Baa” from “Aavesham,” seals the comedic exchange.
Following this amusing interaction, the teaser offers glimpses of other characters and their lively dynamics, all set to an upbeat musical score. It also highlights the on-screen camaraderie between Mohanlal and actor-editor Sangeeth Prathap’s characters.
