At an event, Tovino talked about the positive response received to his film. He said, "To get such overwhelmingly positive reviews for a film we shot mostly soaked in water is an amazing feeling. I can’t think of a single film that garnered 100% positive reviews on social media before. Maybe because this is a film every Malayalee feels close to his/her heart. We feel an emotional attachment to the film."
He added, "I remember crying when I read the script. But I didn’t tell anyone. Jude would be all over the location enacting the scenes for us. I remember waiting to go home once the sun comes out only to have a raincoat-clad Jude standing in water, writing down some scenes on a piece of paper that needs to be shot."
