It may be recalled that the makers had earlier announced the release date of the film as November 27 this year. However, the release got postponed. 

Mammootty Kampany had announced the delay saying, "Delayed, NOT Diminished. We hear you... The wait is noted. The Venom Beneath Will Arrive Soon !! Kalamkaval Release Postponed , New Release Date will be Announced Soon !! Mammootty Vinayakan MammoottyKampany JithinKJose WayfarerFilms SamadTruth TruthGlobalFilms."

Notably, the Censor Board has already cleared the film for release with a U/A certificate. In fact, Mammootty had himself confirmed the news, stating "Kalamkaval Censored with U/A 16+ Certificate. In Cinemas Soon."

Kalamkaval to clash with Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar

Interestingly, with the announcement of the new release date, it is clear that the film will now lock horns with Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar. It will be interesting to see which film marches ahead at the box office.

Kalamkaval has triggered huge interest in fans and film buffs ever since the makers released a teaser.

The teaser of the film, which the makers released several days ago, begins with a door being knocked on. A Tamilian opens the door and asks, "Who are you?". We then see a police officer asking another cop, whose identity is not revealed to the audience, "Are you the one who's Nath?" We then are treated to a series of visuals of both lead actors, Vinayakan and Mammootty. While Vinayakan, who appears to be a police officer, sports a grim look all through out, Mammootty, whose role cannot be made out, sports the look of a cool, calm man, surveilling someone else.

The film, which is Mammootty Kampany’s seventh production, has a tagline that reads, “The venom beneath”.

'Kalamkaval', the shooting of which was wrapped up in November last year, has a story and screenplay by Jithin K Jose and Jishnu Sreekumar. It has editing by Praveen Prabhakar and cinematography by Faisal Ali. Music for this exciting entertainer will be by young composer Mujeeb Majeed. Stunts for the film have been choreographed by Action Santhosh.

The film has been in the news for the curiosity that it has triggered, with its makers claiming that the film will showcase Mammootty in a role in which he has never been seen before. Already, rumours are doing the rounds in the industry that Mammootty plays a character with shades of grey in it. However, there has been no official confirmation in this regard until now.
