Tharun Moorthy Confirms Athimanoharam Shoot Is Ongoing

The director’s Instagram statement denies a script-related stoppage and confirms the crew is continuing filming despite rain disruptions.

Overview

  • Tharun Moorthy posted a public clarification on Thursday saying reports that Athimanoharam had stopped over script confusion are false and that the team has been shooting in Thodupuzha for 78 days.
  • He acknowledged rain has disrupted some plans but said the crew is working through weather challenges and remains committed to continuing production.
  • The clarification was issued after online rumours spread and the director urged people not to share unverified information that could harm the production.
  • Athimanoharam, billed as Mohanlal’s 366th film and his second collaboration with Moorthy, casts Mohanlal as Sub-Inspector T S Lovelajan and names Ratheesh Ravi, Jakes Bejoy, Shaji Kumar, Vivek Harshan, and Meera Jasmine among the key crew and cast.
  • The film launched at Vaikom Mahadeva Temple and the first-look poster shows Mohanlal in police uniform among Ayyappa devotees heading to Sabarimala, and Moorthy has said the movie is a police procedural with a strong family-drama core rather than a repeat of his earlier film Thudarum.
