When the award was announced, Prithviraj said his thoughts immediately went to Najeeb, the man whose story was brought to the world, Benyamin, and Blessy, who set aside 16 years of his life for this movie.
Kaathal- The Core directed by Jeo Baby, a bold, evocative drama won four awards including the best film award.
Leading the charge are Prithviraj, whose portrayal of Najeeb in Aadujeevitham has captivated audiences, and Mammootty, who delivered standout performances as Mathew in Kaathal-The Core and as a police officer in Kannur Squad.
Starring Prithviraj Sukumaran and Amala Paul, this film marks a significant collaboration between Indian and American production companies.
'Ullozhukku' talks about the complex relationship between a daughter-in-law and her mother-in-law. However, it goes beyond the typical 'saas-bahu' dynamics.
The story captures the resilience and unity of the people of Kerala as they band together to endure the disaster.
The film features Mammootty in the lead role, supported by Azees Nedumangad, Rony David Raj, and Shabareesh Varma, along with Kishore and Vijayaraghavan in pivotal roles.
Even though films such as 'Aadujeevitham,' 'Kaathal,' '2018' and 'Ullozhukku' are among the frontrunners for the best film award, any of the unreleased movies could walk away with the honours.
Interestingly, out of the 160 movies, 84 are made by debutant directors.
The actor said that the female statuette given as the award should be replaced with a 'masculine' one.
