The trailer of Meeraj Jasmine’s forthcoming Malayalam movie, Paalum Pazhavum, has promised a hilarious entertainer.
The two-minute-21-second trailer for Paalum Pazhavum introduces Meera Jasmine’s Sumi and Aswin’s Sunil as singles and unemployed. Their family members desperately want them to settle in life and get married.
As Sumi lands a job, she is advised by her colleague to open an account on Facebook to find the right partner.
Sumi and Sunil meet each other via social media and fall in love. They want to get hitched, but here comes the twist in the tale. Sumi is older than Sunil, and their age difference becomes an issue for their families. Meanwhile, Sumi’s boss, who too is single, pursues her. What happens next is a laugh riot.
The makers recently unveiled a quirky poster that introduced the lead characters. “Love in the time of likes & shares! Meet Sumi & Sunil, the Facebook-famous couple who took their online connection to the next level! Share the love and spread the word,” the post read.
The release date poster, launched on 17 July, featured Meera Jasmine’s Sumi getting married to Aswin’s Sunil at a register office. Needless to say, the posters piqued the curiosity of the viewers for the movie.
Paalum Pazhavum is directed by VK Prakash whose latest outing was Live (2023). The Meera Jasmine-starrer will be released on 23 August.
Aswin, who is doing the main lead in the flick, earlier scripted the movie Anuragam (2023).
