InterviewAward-winning actor Priyanka Nair plays the lead in Abhilash Purushothaman’s debut feature film, which is on a problem faced by women across the world.CrisPriyanka Nair plays the single character in the filmWhen Abhilash Purushothaman went to Goa in 2019 to attend the international film festival there, he began to reimagine a script he'd had in mind. He had just watched the Tamil film Oththa Seruppu Size 7, in which Parthipan played the only character on screen. Abhilash’s story was mostly about a woman character.

Abhilash came back to his home in Thiruvananthapuram and began writing the script with only the woman’s character appearing on the screen, and the others turning into voices on the telephone. In one-and-a-half years, he wrote the script, shot most of it, and now at last, it is in post-production stage.
