Empuraan,
the
sequel
to
the
Malayalam
film
industry's
biggest
blockbuster
Lucifer,
is
one
of
the
most
awaited
upcoming
projects
right
now.
Interestingly,
the
script
of
Empuraan
is
finally
locked.
Prithviraj
Sukumaran,
the
director
of
the
project,
and
scriptwriter
Murali
Gopy
recently
confirmed
that
the
script
of
the
Mohanlal
starrer
is
finished.
The
actor-director
duo
made
the
exciting
announcement
through
their
respective
social
media
pages,
by
sharing
a
selfie
clicked
during
the
script
narration.
Prithviraj
Sukumaran,
who
is
all
excited
about
Empuraan,
stated
that
he
cannot
wait
to
kickstart
the
Mohanlal
starrer,
in
his
post.
Murali
Gopy,
on
the
other
hand,
revealed
that
he
has
given
a
full
design
brief
of
Empuraan
to
his
dear
director
brother.
Empuraan
is
a
being
made
on
a
larger
scale
while
comparing
the
first
installment
Lucifer.
Recently,
it
was
rumoured
that
Mammootty,
the
megastar
might
join
the
star
cast
of
the
Mohanlal
starrer.
The
speculations
started
doing
rounds
after
Prithviraj
Sukumaran
made
a
subtle
hint
on
working
with
Mammootty,
by
commenting
on
Murali
Gopy's
birthday
wish
post
for
the
megastar.
However,
the
makers
have
not
commented
on
the
reports
yet.
In
a
recent
interview
given
to
a
popular
media,
Murali
Gopy
had
revealed
that
the
sequel
of
Lucifer
will
only
start
rolling
by
the
end
of
2021.
According
to
Murali,
the
project
which
was
originally
supposed
to
go
on
floors
in
2020,
was
postponed
to
2021
due
to
the
busy
schedules
of
director
Prithviraj
and
lead
actor
Mohanlal.
If
the
reports
are
to
be
believed,
a
bunch
of
popular
actors
from
the
Malayalam,
Bollywood,
and
Tamil,
film
industries
have
been
considered
to
play
the
pivotal
roles
in
Empuraan.
The
prominent
faces
of
Lucifer
are
also
expected
to
reprise
their
characters
in
the
much-awaited
sequel.
The
project
is
bankrolled
by
Antony
Perumbavoor
for
Aashirvad
Cinemas.
