In a recent development, the highly anticipated fantasy drama ‘Barroz,’ marking Mohanlal’s directorial debut, may experience a delay in its scheduled release date of March 28, as per reports from the Twitter forum Forum Keralam. Film enthusiasts eager to witness Mohanlal’s prowess as a director may need to extend their anticipation.
Derived from Jijo Punnoose’s novel, “Barroz: Guardian of D’Gama’s Treasure,” the film explores the story of a 400-year-old spirit named Barroz, tasked with safeguarding D’Gama’s treasure. Barroz eagerly awaits the arrival of a true descendant of D’Gama to pass on this precious legacy.
The epic fantasy, predominantly filmed in Kochi and Goa, with additional sequences shot in Bangkok and Chennai, promises a visually immersive experience as it unfolds in 3D. Mohanlal takes on the titular role, supported by a talented ensemble cast including Maya, Cesar Lorente Raton, Kallirroi Tziafeta, Tuhin Menon, and Guru Somasundaram in significant supporting roles. The original score, composed by Mark Kilian, accompanied by songs from Lydian Nadhaswaram, adds another layer of allure to this cinematic creation.
As fans await official confirmation regarding the release date shift of ‘Barroz,’ they can look forward to Mohanlal and Lijo Jose Pellissery’s much-anticipated action drama film ‘Malaikottai Vaaliban,’ set to hit the big screens on January 25.
