Malayalam superstar Mohanlal is gearing up for an exciting new collaboration with filmmaker Anoop Sathyan. The makers recently organised the puja ceremony of their upcoming film in Kochi on Friday, marking the beginning of a new journey for the team. Tentatively titled L368, the film has already generated curiosity among fans, especially after the makers unveiled its first-look poster following the ceremony. The project brings together two prominent names from Malayalam cinema, raising expectations about what they have in store for audiences.
The puja ceremony was attended by the film’s cast and crew, along with producer Binu George Alexander. The project is being produced under the banner of Aashirvad Cinemas, a production house associated with several popular Malayalam films. Sharing glimpses from the special occasion, Aashirvad Cinemas posted photographs and videos from the ceremony on its official Instagram handle on Friday. The pictures offered fans a glimpse of the team coming together to celebrate the start of the project and seek blessings ahead of the film’s production.
The first-look poster was another highlight of the announcement. It features Mohanlal alongside two child actors, with all three flashing the familiar “I Love You” sign. The cheerful visual has added an interesting touch to the film’s introduction, while keeping the story and characters under wraps. Mohanlal also shared the poster on his Instagram account, allowing his followers to get their first glimpse of the upcoming project. Although the makers have not revealed details about the plot, the unusual first-look image has certainly encouraged curiosity about the film’s theme and tone.
Mohanlal had announced his collaboration with Anoop Sathyan in August. The actor shared the news on X along with a photograph featuring the director and producer Binu George Alexander. The trio were seen standing beside a traditional terracotta nilavilakku, or clay lamp, which is often associated with auspicious beginnings. Announcing the project, Mohanlal wrote, “Thrilled to announce my collaboration with director Anoop Sathyan for our upcoming film! Produced by Binu George Alexander in association with Aashirvad Cinemas, the project officially goes on floors this November.” The announcement had already created excitement among fans, and the puja ceremony has now brought the project one step closer to its shooting schedule.
For Anoop Sathyan, L368 marks his return to the big screen after a gap of six years. His new collaboration with Mohanlal is therefore an important upcoming project in his directorial journey. While the filmmaker and the production team have kept the storyline and other details confidential, the association with an established star like Mohanlal has made the film one to watch out for among Malayalam cinema followers. The presence of two child actors in the first-look poster has also prompted interest in the film’s characters and narrative.
Mohanlal, meanwhile, continues to remain busy with an exciting slate of projects. The actor was recently seen in Jailer 2, which featured superstar Rajinikanth in the lead role. With L368, he now adds another promising collaboration to his upcoming lineup. As the film prepares to go on floors in November, fans will be keenly waiting for further announcements about the cast, technical crew, storyline and release plans. For now, the puja ceremony and first-look poster have offered an encouraging start to Mohanlal and Anoop Sathyan’s new cinematic venture.
