Back in 2021, it was announced that many veteran actors from the Malayalam film industry were going to come together for a star-studded project. The project had generated significant buzz back then because the actors were going to unite on the screen for an anthology film that would be based on the stories by M T Vasudevan Nair. The trailer of this series – ‘Manorathangal’ - was released recently. It has already become the talk of the town.
The 1:46 minute trailer of ‘Manorathangal’ opens with a shot of Kamal Haasan introducing the series. The actor praises M T Vasudevan Nair and the trailer cuts to give a glimpse of the stories. Mohanlal’s segment has been shot in black and white and he is seen pulling logs in a river. Mammootty, on the other hand, is seen seated in a car as he drives away from the city. Fahadh Faasil is seen in a snowy hill station reading a letter.
