Director Midhun Manuel Thomas quipped that Kunchacko won’t be getting any leaves to take up the new job. “So how is it going to be? You won’t get leave just when you have got a job. I have started writing the script. Please inbox me Raju’s number when you get time,” he wrote in the comments section.

On the career front, Kunchacko was last seen in the comedy film Bheemante Vazhi. He has a slew of movies, including Pada, Tamil-Malayalam bilingual Rendagam, Pakalum Paathiraavan, and Ariyippu in the works.
