Jeo Baby has an impressive track record as his films, such as The Great Indian Kitchen, dealt with issues faced by women in a male-dominated society.
He then directed a short film that was part of the anthology film Freedom Fight. The movie went on to show the issues faced by old people, and it was titled Old Age Home.

The movie features Muthumani, Chinnu Chandini, Sudhi Kozhikode, Alistair Alex, Anagha Aku, Josie Sijo, Adarsh Sukumaran and others in important roles.
Kaathal is produced by Mammootty Kampany and distributed by Dulquer Salman’s Wayfarer Films. Salu K Thomas is the cinematographer of the movie while the screenplay is written by Adarsh Sukumaran and Paulson Zakaria.
Mammootty’s earlier films like Rorschach (2022) and Nanpakal Nerathu Mayakkam (2022) had mesmerized audiences, and Kathal also has expectations from movie buffs as Mammootty is collaborating with Jeo Baby.
Magic is Brewing !!!
