Set

contemporary

the
Malayalam
crime
drama
is
a
twisted
interpretation
of

The
film's
trailer
gives
a
glimpse
into
Joji
and
his
world.
Joji
played
by
Fahadh
Faasil,
is
an
engineering
dropout
and
the
youngest
son
of
the
rich
plantation
family,
who
aspires
to
become
a
super-wealthy
NRI.
His
father
sees
down
on
him
and
thinks
of
him
as
nothing
more
than
a
loser.
Driven
by
greed
and
blind
ambition,
Joji
finally
decides
to
execute
his
plans
following
an
unexpected
event
in
the
family.
Sharing
about
his
character
and
working
with
versatile
cast
actor
and
co-producer
Fahad
Fasil
said,
"Joji
is
very
close
to
my
heart
since
I
have
got
the
chance
to
share
the
screen
with
some
of
the
veterans
in
the
filmmaking
industry-
Baburaj,
Shammi
Thilakan,
and
Unnimaya
Prasadin.
It's
a
sheer
delight
to
work
on
the
project
with
such
talented
professionals.
Moreover,
in
the
film
I
will
be
seen
in
a
unique
and
interesting
avatar.
Since
the
first
look
unveil,
Joji
has
been
the
talk
of
the
town
and
I
can't
wait
enough
for
the
film's
world
premiere
across
240
countries
and
territories.
I
am
certain
that
the
global
audiences
will
enjoy
watching
the
film
as
much
as
we
loved
creating
it."
The
man
behind
Joji's
character
and
the
script,
writer
Syam
Pushkaran
said,
"Joji
is
a
very
interesting
character
who
is
inspired
by
Shakespeare's
Macbeth.
The
character
is
from
the
play
but
with
a
contemporary
twist
making
it
more
realistic
for
the
present
generation.
It
is
both
exciting
and
challenging
to
re-create
a
character
from
a
classic;
however,
Fahadh
has
aced
Joji's
character
with
utmost
perfection
in
the
film.
I
am
thrilled
that
audiences
across
the
globe
will
get
to
witness
our
inspiration
of
the
tragedy
through
the
Amazon
Prime
Video."
On
reuniting
with
Fahadh
Faasil
and
Syam
Pushkaran
after
four
years,
director
Dileesh
Pothan
shared,
"I
believe
there
couldn't
have
been
a
better
choice
than
pairing
up
with
Fahadh
and
Syam
to
create
Joji.
We
share
a
great
level
of
bonding
and
hence
it
was
exciting
to
work
with
both
of
them
since
we
have
known
each
other
for
the
longest
time.
Fahadh
and
Syam,
as
an
actor
and
as
a
scriptwriter
respectively
have
done
a
commendable
job
to
bring
to
life
a
director's
vision
and
I
couldn't
be
happier
enough."

out
to
what
extent
Joji
