Check out the teaser below:
In an earlier conversation with Firstpost, Mammootty had opened up on the film. He was quoted as saying, "Mamangam is a content-driven period drama. When the script came to me I was impressed with layers in my characterisation, something I have not done before. It is a beautiful script-oriented period drama, where I play this mysterious character, which sports various looks, and is multi-dimensional. The new generation should know about some of Kerala’s unsung heroes.”
Producer of the film, Venu Kunnappilly, revealed in a conversation with New Indian Express, “Normally, people expect a lot of action in films of this sort. Mamangam is not just about the wars but also about a chaver’s journey, their preparations, separation from their families, and also the factors that dissuade them from their goal. If you look at the history of the chavers, they’ve always encountered setbacks.”
