Check it out here:

Earlier, while talking about the film, Prithviraj had told news agency ANI, “In 2008, when Blessy first told me about doing this movie, my initial thought was, how do I approach this character? Do I come down and talk to you about who you really are, or do I try to understand the character Najeeb that Benyamin wrote or the Najeeb that Blessy has in his mind? This was the confusion I had.”

He further added, “Finally, Blessy and I decided that I should play the Najeeb I visualise in my mind based on the novel and the Najeeb that Blessy visualised. That's the Najeeb you'll see in the movie. There is a big difference.”

Apart from Prithviraj Sukumaran, ‘Aadujeevitham’ also stars Amala Paul, KR Gokul, Haitian-French actor Jimmy Jean-Louis along with Arab actors Talib al Balushi and RikAby. The film is based on a novel by Benyamin of the same name, and revolves around the true story of a man named Najeeb from Kerala ,who migrates to the Gulf in the 90s for a better life. However, he is forced to herd goats against his will, and makes him want to return home.
