Empuraan, starring Mohanlal and directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, is little more than two weeks away from its theatrical release and the buzz online is getting bigger. The trailer of Empuraan, which comes six years after the 2019 Lucifer, is expected to be launched on March 17. But the latest buzz is that an exclusive content of Empruaan could be screened at Times Square, ahead of the trailer launch. 

Empuraan content at Times Square?

The makers of Empuraan are reportedly planning to showcase an exclusive content of the Mohanlal-starrer at the Times Square in New York. Giju John, who appears in a key role in Empuraan, has made the announcement on his Twitter handle Aashirvad Hollywood. 

“An exclusive Empuraan content is going to be playing at the Times Square New York. Do not miss out,” says Giju, who plays the character of Sanjeev, the CEO of NPTV channel, in Lucifer franchise. He further said that a Lalettan fans meet-up is also planned in the US, the first of its kind.
