The movie “The Goat Life,” starring Malayalam star hero Prithviraj Sukumaran, has recently caught the attention of movie lovers. The film is set for a pan-India theatrical release on the 28th of this month, in Malayalam as well as in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, and Kannada languages. Directed by award-winning director Blessy and based on Benjamin’s novel “Goat Days,” “The Goat Life” is produced by Visual Romance banner with a substantial budget, marking it as a prestigious project in the Malayalam film industry. Today saw the release of the trailer for “The Goat Life.”
The trailer impresses with its unique making, drawing the audience into the world of “The Goat Life.” Featuring Prithviraj Sukumaran in various get-ups, excellent visual capture, expansive desert locations, and heart-touching depiction of the hero Najeeb’s life, the trailer effectively communicates the essence of the movie.
On the occasion of the trailer release, Director Blessy remarked, “In my opinion, ‘The Goat Life’ is an unparalleled survival adventure movie. It makes one wonder about the reality of such incidents in a person’s life, reinforcing the idea that truth is stranger than fiction. The tag line from the novel on which the film is based says ‘Mithye Akhwalam,’ alluding to experiences we have not faced. It took Richard Attenborough 20 years to make the film ‘Gandhi.’ We took ten years to bring ‘The Goat Life’ to fruition. We hope the audience will enjoy the new world we are about to unveil on screen.”
Hero Prithviraj Sukumaran shared, “Our entire team has embarked on a long and arduous journey for this film. After ten years of hard work, we are thrilled that the audience will finally see our film on screen. The unexpected and unforgettable journey we’ve taken with this movie since the Covid era makes us proud to be part of a great movie like ‘The Goat Life.’ Director Blessy had a wonderful vision, and A.R. Rahman brought that vision to life with his music. To us, ‘The Goat Life’ is not just a movie but a profound story that touches our hearts, one that will be remembered forever. We hope the audience feels the same.”
“The Goat Life” portrays the real-life story of a young man named Najeeb, who migrated abroad from Kerala in the 90s in search of a livelihood. Alongside Prithviraj Sukumaran, the movie features Hollywood actor Jimmy Jean Lewis, Amala Paul, K.R. Gokul, and notable Arab actors Talib Al Balushi and Rick Aube in key roles.
