Kala Teaser: Tovino Thomas showcases intensity

The teaser of actor Tovino Thomas’s Kala is out and it shows a few telling scenes in tune with a piece of gripping background music. It begins with French novelist Andrew Malraux’s quote - Man is not what he thinks he is, he is what he hides – and goes onto a mix of shots, showing love, fight, surprise.

It was during the filming of a fight sequence for Kala a few months ago that Tovino sustained internal injuries and had to be admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of a private hospital in Kochi. He recovered well but was advised complete rest following which he was out of action for three weeks. 

Kala is directed by Rohith VS and has Tovino and Divya Pillai in the lead roles with a foreign breed canine playing an important role. Tovino plays the role Shaji while Divya Pillai plays his wife Vidya. Dawn Vincent is composing music for Kala with Akhil George handling the camera and Livingston Mathew doing the edits.

While Kala is in the post-production stage, Tovino has various other films in different stages of production. Of this, Kaanekkaane is nearing completion and Minnal Murali is waiting for release. 

Directed by Basil Joseph, Minnal Murali is a superhero film bankrolled by Sophia Paul under the banner of Weekend Blockbusters. The technical crew of this film includes Baahubali art director Manu Jagadh, Shaan Rahman for scoring music to Manu Manjith’s lyrics and Livingston Mathew doing the editing. Minnal Murali is written by Arun Anirudhan and Justin Mathew.
