Malayalam actor Manju Warrier made a stunning comeback with How Old Are You a few years ago and since then has been signing project after project. Recently, she has inked the deal to star in the Malayalam film 9 MM, which will be her landmark 50th film.

Dhinil Babu will be making his debut as a director with this flick and it will be bankrolled by Visakh Subramaniam and Aju Varghese under the banner Funtastic Films. The technical crew of this film includes Dhyan Sreenivasan for scripting with Sam CS to compose the tunes and Vetri Palanisamy to crank the camera. The stunts for this entertainer will be choreographed by Yannick Ben. Dhyan, Sunny Wayne and Dileesh Pothan will be acting in the film along with Manju Warrier, Aju wrote in a post.

While Manju Warrier will be joining the sets of 9 MM soon, she has two other films – Marakkar: Arabikadalinte Simham and Jack and Jill – waiting for release. Both these films have completed post production but the release is delayed due to the COVID-19 situation.
