And now, with the entire shooting coming to an end, the post production will begin full swing. Lucifer is scheduled to hit the silver screens on March 28 this year and the team is racing against time to meet this deadline.

Lucifer is one of the most anticipated films in the Malayalam film industry as it marks the directorial debut of actor Prithviraj Sukumaran. It will be a political thriller where Mohanlal will be playing an anti hero. He plays a politician in the film, and his character is named Stephen Nedumballi.

The shooting of this film began on July 18 last year and was supposed to be wrapped up by December 2018. However, the shooting schedules went haywire for certain reasons which have resulted in some delay.

The technical crew of the film includes Sujith Vasudevan for cinematography and Samjith for editing while Stephen Devassy is in charge of the music composition. Veteran writer and actor Murali Gopy has penned the script for Lucifer which is touted to be a political thriller. The film is produced by Antony Perumbavoor under the banner Aashirvad Cinemas.
