Apart from Pooja, the film will also feature Yogi Babu, Aparna Das and Shine Tom Chacko in key roles. If reports are to be believed, Bollywood's versatile actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui might play the antagonist in the highly anticipated film. However, an official confirmation about his addition is yet to be made by the makers.
