Academy Award-winning sound designer Resul Pookutty is making his directorial debut with the Malayalam film Otta. The trailer of the movie, which stars Asif Ali, Arjun Ashokan and Indrajith, among others, was unveiled on Friday. It showcases the story of two young boys who run away from their homes.
The over two-minute-long trailer begins with a narrator explaining how children are like clay who take the shape of whatever falls on them. Then, we are given a glimpse into the lives of two boys, who are regularly reprimanded by their fathers, and blame their wives for not raising them well. After reaching a saturation point, both of them run away from home. Now, how will their life shape up from here, remains to be seen.
Otta is set in Kerala and Tamil Nadu. It is based on S Hariharan’s book titled Runaway Children and takes inspiration from Hariharan’s life. From the look of it, the film seems to be an emotional rollercoaster. It also stars Sathyaraj, Rohini, Sukumaran, Indrans, Adil Hussain, Divya Datta, Jaffar Idukki, Pookutty’s brother Baiju Pookutty and actor Jalaja’s daughter Devi Nair.
The movie has music by M Jayachandran and lyrics are penned by Rafeeq Ahamed. It is scheduled to hit theatres on October 27.
Besides directing Otta, Resul Pookutty has been working on films like Puspa The Rule, Aadujjevitham, and Vadakkan.
