About Empuraan
Also popularly known as L2E (which stands for Lucifer's sequel Empuraan), the film is about the journey of Stephen Nedumpilly (Mohanlal) and how he became Khureshi Ab'Ram, the leader of an international crime organisation.
The film is set to be released in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Hindi. Murali Gopi has written the screenplay for the film, which is speculated to have a theatrical release around mid-2024. Empuraan's official announcement took place in August 2022, with Mohanlal revealing that the film is not merely a pan-Indian film, as the creators have envisioned it to be a global cinematic experience. Joining Mohanlal in the film are Malayalam stars Manju Warrier and Tovino Thomas.
The production of Empuraan
The production house of the film, Aashirvad Cinemas, unveiled a video in May 2023 that showcased Prithviraj and Antony Perumbavoor scouting potential filming sites in London for the high-budget film. Originally slated to start production in August, plans were delayed due to Prithviraj's injury that he sustained during the filming of his other film, Vilayath Buddha. Despite expectations of resuming Empuraan in September following Prithviraj's recovery, the first schedule did not proceed as initially intended. Finally, on October 5, Empuraan officially entered its production stage.
