Thiruvananthapuram, Nov 26 (Ians) As megastar Mammootty’s film ‘Kathaal – The Core’ is doing rounds at the box office, the actor’s production handle has shared a behind-the-scenes clip of the climax scene from his previous film ‘Kannur Squad’. The clip showcases the meticulous details for the scene which in fact was improvised.
The video posted on X by the actor’s own production house Mammootty Kampany showed a lot of improvisation regarding the car scene. The sequence involved the police car taking a 360 degree turn without any editing while simultaneously being assaulted by a mob.
One of the things which made ‘Kannur Squad’ such a massive hit was its great attention to detail, designing the entire village and shanties from scratch rather than picking live locations.

Thiruvananthapuram, Nov 22 (Ians) Malayalam megastar Mammootty isn’t stopping any time soon, as he is dishing out movies after movies. After the gigantic success of his last film ‘Kannur Squad’, the actor’s new film ‘Kathaal- The Core’ has released a teaser, offering final glimpses of what appears to be a very strong emotional drama.
Narrated by actress Jyotika, Mammootty’s character is someone who is rather distant from his family and is soon estranged from them. A feud erupts which leaves the once happy family with a bitter relationship.
Trying his best to fix the damage, the story of ‘Kathaal’ is yet another example of the experimental projects that are very typical in Malayalam cinema, as it is known to be the most experimental and unconventional film industry in the South.
The score of the teaser is bleak and the tone is haunting, but not in the horror film...

Malayalam superstar Mammootty’s new crime-thriller film ‘Kannur Squad’ has released the music video for its latest track ‘Mrudhu Bhaave Dhruda Kruthye’, a very pleasing and soothing track which is just pure joy to listen to. ‘Mrudhu Bhaave Dhruda Kruthye’ employs a very soulful aesthetic, with the delightful singing of Sushin Shyam being pleasant and yet having a somewhat somber tone.
The music video in itself does not give away much of what the film is about, except that Mammootty and his crew, all of whom are from Kerala police, are headed off in a police van on a long road trip.
This trip leads from Kerala to Mumbai, before they finally reach the city of Faizabad in Uttar Pradesh. Throughout the video, we just see them on a road trip where they later get a call from a Mumbai police constable who says that they have a gift for him.

Kannur Squad, the crime drama starring Mammootty in the lead role, has received highly positive reviews from critics and audiences alike. The film, directed by debutant Roby Varghese Raj and written by Muhammed Shafi and Rony David, is a solid police procedural that unfolds at a measured tempo, avoiding excessive dramatisation. However, its notable resemblances to earlier films within the same genre prevent it from being truly fresh1.
