Nivin Pauly-starrer Mahaveeryar, a fantasy drama released in July 2022, is celebrating its second anniversary on Wednesday.

The movie was a box-office flop as it failed to connect with the common audience.

Penned by veteran writer M Mukundan, Mahaveeryar focused on justice for a woman.

It had an interesting plot involving time travelling to a court in the 21st century from the 18th century.

The proceedings gained momentum with the entry of a time-travelling monk named Apoornnananda Swamikal (played by Nivin Pauly).

Mahaveeryar was a novel concept that blended modern-day grievances, judgements, an ancient king and the grievances of his people.

The film brilliantly portrayed a courtroom drama, where the king and his ministry from the 18th century visit the modern times.

Though Mahaveeryar was one of the flop films in Nivin Pauly’s career, it received critical applause for its innovation storyline.
