Aadujeevitham Kerala Box Office 46 Days Collection: Prithviraj's Movie Amassed Over ₹79 Crores

Aadujeevitham Box Office Collection: "Aadujeevitham (The Goat Life)" is a Malayalam survival drama helmed by Blessy, who served as the writer, director, and co-producer. This collaborative endeavour brings together Indian and American production companies. Audiences were treated to this enthralling and immersive cinematic experience when the film premiered in theatres on March 28, 2024.

"Aadujeevitham" is adapted from Benyamin's acclaimed 2008 Malayalam novel, inspired by true events. Prithviraj Sukumaran portrays Najeeb, a Malayali migrant labourer ensnared in enslavement as a goat herder on a remote farm in Saudi Arabia.

The inception of the film dates back to 2009, when Blessy made the decision to adapt "Aadujeevitham" shortly after reading the novel in 2008. Prithviraj was chosen for the protagonist's role during the same period, and Blessy collaborated with Benyamin on crafting the screenplay. However, financial constraints posed significant hurdles, causing delays in the project's progress. Blessy devoted several years to securing a producer and finally succeeded in 2015, enabling the project to move forward. Jimmy Jean-Louis and Steven Adams came on board as producers, while A. R. Rahman was enlisted to compose the film's original music and songs.

The filming process spanned six phases from March 2018 to July 2022, covering diverse locations such as the Wadi Rum desert in Jordan, the Sahara in Algeria, and several areas across Kerala, India. A significant pause occurred for 70 days in the Jordanian desert from March to May 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions. Eventually, the crew was repatriated to India via the Indian government's Vande Bharat Mission. Filming wrapped up on July 14, 2022.
