The Mohanlal–Sathyan Anthikad duo has long been known for delivering timeless films to Malayali audiences, and fans are hopeful their latest collaboration will be no different. After a decade-long gap, the iconic pair is back with Hridayapoorvam, which is set to release in theatres this Thursday.

Following the massive success of this year’s Thudarum, expectations are running high for Mohanlal’s next venture. Positioned as an Onam special, the film is tailored for family audiences. From posters and teasers to songs and the newly released trailer, everything suggests a heartwarming, lighthearted family entertainer. The on-screen chemistry between Mohanlal and Sangeeth Prathap, prominently featured in the trailer, has already been well-received by fans.

The film also features Siddique, Lalu Alex, Nishan, Janardanan, and Baburaj in supporting roles. Written by Akhil Sathyan with screenplay and dialogues by Sonu TP, the movie has cinematography by Anu Moothedath and music by Justin Prabhakaran.

Produced by Antony Perumbavoor under the Aashirvad Cinemas banner, Hridayapoorvam marks yet another collaboration between Mohanlal and Sathyan Anthikad, a duo that has delivered several evergreen Malayalam hits in the past.

It also marks the fifth collaboration between Aashirvad Cinemas and Sathyan Anthikad. Their last outing together was the 2015 film Ennum Eppozhum.

Anthikad’s sons, Akhil Sathyan and Anoop Sathyan, are also part of the project. The story has been penned by Akhil Sathyan, while debutant T.P. Sonu has written the screenplay. Anoop Sathyan serves as chief associate director.

The film is slated for a grand Onam release on August 28.
