Ever since The Great Indian Kitchen director Jeo Baby announced that his next directorial would feature Mammootty and Jyotika in the lead roles, movie enthusiasts have been closely following every update about the project.

Titled Kaathal – The Core, the movie has been in production since October last year and its first and second look posters, released a few months ago, underscored that all the hype surrounding the project was worth it.

While the first look poster featured Mammootty and Jyotika, who are joining forces for the first time, sharing a laugh on the porch of their house, the second poster featured the two exhibiting diametrically opposite emotions as they gaze into each other’s eyes intensely.

Now, putting an end to all the anticipation, the film is all set for release and will hit theatres on November 23. Announcing the release date, the makers also revealed a new movie poster showcasing both the lead stars. In contrast to the lighter-toned initial two posters, this one depicts Mammootty and Jyotika’s characters embracing each other as their faces reflect a blend of sadness and tension.
