About Aadujeevitham
It is a film adaptation of the renowned Malayalam novel bearing the same title, penned by Benyamin in 2008. The novel recounts the factual tale of Najeeb, a Malayali migrant laborer who, akin to numerous others, found himself compelled into servitude as a goatherd in the Saudi Arabian deserts by indigenous Arabs.
Prithviraj on Aadujeevitham, "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."
"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," he added, as quoted by ANI.
