Naman Ramachandran Indian cinema A-list actor-producer-director Prithviraj Sukumaran is extremely busy, with a hit film in theaters, another due this week and several more in the works.
Malayalam-language “Aadujeevitham” (“The Goat Life“), directed by Blessy (“Thanmatra”) is based on Benyamin’s bestselling 2008 novel of the same name and tells the true story of Najeeb, an immigrant laborer from Kerala forced into slavery on a remote goat farm in a Middle Eastern country.
Sukumaran plays Najeeb. The film released over the Easter weekend and is a hit, with a $14 million gross so far. That makes it the sixth highest grossing Malayalam-language film of all time.
Production began in 2018 and principal photography took place over several schedules across Kerala, Jordan and Algeria. “I knew as an actor that this was a prerequisite, that to actually portray the entire character arc I’d have to go through this drastic physical transformation of losing a lot of weight and looking very emaciated,” Sukumaran told Variety.
