The first look poster of the Mammootty starrer Unda was released on April 12th. Interestingly, it was the poster design that had garnered the attention of the film buffs. It featured Mammootty along with a set of actors in the film, showing everyone with equal prominence. Mammootty plays Inspector Manikandan in the movie and in the poster he is seen trying to fix a truck that has broken down along with his team of cops.

On the poster, the film’s producer Krishnan Sethukumar said in an interview to cinemaexpress.com, “This poster wouldn’t have seen the light of day if not for Mammukka. He put aside his stardom to give more importance to the totality of the film, which is something to be appreciated. This wouldn’t have been possible with any other actor, even a debutant. Normally, when we suggest a poster like this to any other actor, they would reject it outright. In this poster, actors who have appeared in a few films have more prominence than Mammootty.”

Written and directed by Khalid Rahman, the film is an action comedy that is bankrolled by Moviee Mill's Krishnan Sethukumar and Gemini Studios. The film has Mammootty in the lead role playing a police officer, with Shine Tom Chacko, Jacob Gregory, Arjun Ashokan and Omkar Das Manikpuri in supporting roles. Asif Ali, Vinay Forrt, and Sudhi Koppa will be seen making cameo appearances in the film.

The music of the film is by Prashant Pillai and the cinematography is handled by Jimshi Khalid and Sajith Purushan. The film is about a team of policemen headed by Mammootty’s character, sent to the naxal prone areas in Chhattisgarh for election duty. The shooting of this film began last year and is scheduled to hit the silver screens for Eid al-Fitr 2019.
