We previously reported on Kalyani Priyadarshan’s role in Sesham Mikeil Fathima, written and directed by debutant Manu C Kumar. The first look was released by the creators on Friday. Kalyani plays a football enthusiast who also works as a game announcer in local tournaments in the Malabar-set film. It is her second Malabar-based role, following Thallumaala, in which she played a fashionable social media influencer.
It is a chill story about a young woman who is a football announcer in Malappuram. The game just forms the backdrop for Fathima’s story. Shaheen Siddique has an extended cameo.
