Why only Kiliye Kiliye Song:
In the interview with Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra director, he talked about music director Jakes Bejoy, stating, “All of the technicians put in that much work for this film. Complete autonomy to practice their art was granted to each technician. We wanted them all to do their hardest and produce some original results.”
Following that he also said about the Kiliye Kiliye song reference, “I’m happy the song made an impact. I’ve always been a fan of director Priyadarshan. This song picturisation was my tribute to Vandanam, one of my favourite movies of Priyadarshan.”

In the same interview, he was asked about the clash between Mohanlal’s movie during Onam and also Fahad Fasil’s movie. In this response, the director said, “Yes, that was intentional. We were at odds with both the Fahad Faazil film and Mohanlal’s Onam movie. We chose to rely on word-of-mouth advertising because we felt it would be wiser to avoid creating any frenzy about it. To be honest, when I began writing the screenplay in 2021, I assumed it would be an independent production with little-known performers. Later, the script underwent numerous revisions, and we produced a total of over 20 drafts.”
