Abrid Shine’s Spa Release Pushed to February 13 Due to Nationwide Strike

The makers of Spa, written and directed by Abrid Shine, have announced that the film’s theatrical release has been deferred by a day. Originally scheduled to hit screens on February 12, the film will now release on February 13. The update was shared via the film’s official social media handles on Tuesday, citing the nationwide strike planned for February 12 as the reason for the change.

Set in and around a spa, the film delves into the questionable activities and unsettling truths associated with the space. Spa features a large ensemble cast that includes Shruthy Menon, Sidharth Bharathan, Radhika Radhakrishnan, Sreeja Das, Poojitha Menon, Rima Dutta, Sreelakshmi Bhatt, Neena Kurup, Megha Thomas, Vineeth Thattil, Prasanth Alexander, Vijay Menon, Dinesh Prabhakar, Major Ravi, Ashwin K Kumar, Srikant Murali, Kichus Tellus, and Joji K John.

The film is produced by Sajimon Parayil and Sanchoo J. On the technical front, Swaroop Philip handles cinematography, Manoj is the editor, and Ishaan Chhabra has composed the music.

Spa marks Abrid Shine’s return to direction after Mahaveeryar. The filmmaker is best known for acclaimed films such as 1983, Action Hero Biju, Poomaram, and The Kung Fu Master.

With its revised release date, Spa will now face stiff box-office competition on February 13 from Rajesh Madhavan’s directorial debut Pennum Porattum, Mathew Thomas–Devika Sanjay starrer Sukhamano Sukhamann, and the investigative thriller Ee Thani Niram, led by Anoop Menon.
