The makers of the upcoming Malayalam film Corona Dhavan released its promo video where the characters can be seen getting too desperate to grab liquor bottles.
The title of the movie was changed from Corona Javan to Corona Dhavan after the Censor Board asked to change the title.
On a funny note, its debutant director CC Nithin posted a letter, on his Instagram, addressing Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan where he wondered why the Censor Board didn’t ask him (Shah Rukh) to change the title of his forthcoming flick Jawan.
Corona Dhavan is set in a village called “Aanathadam” where the lives of a bunch of alcoholics turn upside down with the outbreak of Covid-19.
The trailer of this comedy entertainer depicts the hardships faced by Malayalees during the lockdown. It is also packed with romantic scenes between the lead pair — Lukman Avaran and Sruthy Jayan.
