Why Fans Are Excited

This marks Dulquer’s return to full-blooded Malayalam action after King of Kotha, and expectations are sky-high. Director Nahas Hidhayath, who impressed audiences with his stylish debut I’m Game, is once again betting big on high-octane visuals paired with sharp writing. The film also marks Tamil filmmaker Mysskin’s Malayalam acting debut, adding another layer of intrigue to an already stacked ensemble cast.

Shot across multiple South Indian locations over 156 days, I’m Game is being pitched as one of Dulquer’s most ambitious projects — a slick, glamour-heavy thriller that leans hard into style without losing its edge.
