Director Basil Joseph opens up on Minnal Murali's sequel

Minnal Murali’s director Basil Joseph, in an interview, spilled beans over the possibility of the movie turning into a franchise. Minnal Murali is a recent Malayalam superhero movie, which was widely acclaimed by the audience. Talking about the possibility of the movie’s sequel and it becoming a franchise, Joseph said, “There are strong reasons to believe Minnal Murali can become a franchise. Discussions are happening but nothing has been confirmed yet to make an official announcement.”

Last week, producer Sophia Paul also spoke about the sequel plans in an interview with a leading news portal. She said, “It’s too early to talk about what lies ahead, but yes, we will soon announce the sequel, a bigger extravaganza. As I said, I can’t talk about what we have in mind, but it’s going to be a hell of a ride.”

Minnal Murali stars Tovino Thomas as the superhero. It also features Guru Somasundaram, Harisree Ashokan, and Aju Varghese. It was originally scheduled for theatrical release but the makers decided to cancel the plans and went ahead with the OTT release. The movie premiered on Netflix on December 24.
