L2: Empuraan, directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, features a stellar cast, including Manju Warrier, Tovino Thomas, Abhimanyu Singh, Indrajith Sukumaran, Jerome Flynn, and Suraj Venjaramoodu. The film, written by Murali Gopy, serves as a sequel to the 2019 blockbuster Lucifer and is the second part of a planned trilogy.
The film has been released not just in Malayalam but also in Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Telugu, extending its appeal across linguistic boundaries.
With the extended weekend ahead and strong word of mouth, L2: Empuraan looks set to break several more records and redefine success for Malayalam cinema.
