Pranav Mohanlal’s look in ‘Empuraan’ was modeled on Mohanlal’s 1980 debut; ‘L3’ to feature more antagonists – Prithviraj reveals

Prithviraj Sukumaran revealed that Pranav Mohanlal’s resemblance to his father’s early film days in ‘Manjil Virinja Pookkal’ inspired the younger Stephen Nedumbally’s look in ‘Empuraan’, avoiding AI for authenticity. ‘L3’ will further explore Stephen’s past with new antagonists. The SAG strike impacted ‘Empuraan’s’ casting, leading to Jerome Flynn and Rick Yune joining the cast after negotiations with SAG members stalled. ‘L2: Empuraan’ received mixed reviews amidst high expectations.
