Prithviraj Sukumaran has started promoting his upcoming movie L2: Empuraan, featuring Mohanlal. In an interview with Galatta Plus, he shared that at first, he wanted Mammootty to play the main role in Bro Daddy.
Regarding his initial concepts, Prithviraj Sukumaran revealed, “I proposed Bro Daddy to Mammootty initially. I envisioned Mammootty sir playing John Kattadi, a character that was distinctly different from the current one. Initially, I had in mind a character similar to Kottayam Kunjachan, who is wealthy yet down-to-earth and Christian.
He further explained, “I thought it would be really cute to see Mammukka do this lovestruck husband and head over heels in love with his wife. Of late, nobody really associates Mammootty sir with such a character. I pitched it to Mammukka, he liked the script but wasn’t able to do it as an immediate project.”
Prithviraj also revealed that Mammootty had suggested waiting to work on the project in the future. However, Prithviraj was keen on directing the film during the COVID-19 pandemic, as it required a restricted space and a limited number of actors.
Additionally, he mentioned that if he were to collaborate with Mammootty after the restrictions were lifted, he would prefer to do something bigger rather than a film like Bro Daddy.
If you haven’t heard, the Malayalam film “Bro Daddy,” directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, made its debut on Disney+ Hotstar in 2022. It’s a comedy-drama that focuses on the life of John Kattadi, a wealthy businessman who owns Kattadi TMT Steel Bars and comes from an affluent family.
Happily married to his wife Annamma, the couple has a son, Eesho, who works as a creative director in an advertising company. However, their lives take an awkward and humorous turn when John and Annamma become pregnant for the second time—at the same time that their son and his girlfriend are expecting a child.
The resulting chaos and how they manage to navigate the situation form the crux of the film.
Meanwhile, Mohanlal and Prithviraj will soon appear together in L2: Empuraan, the sequel to Lucifer, which is slated for release on March 27, 2025.
