The movie has created huge pan-India expectations and is set for a grand theatrical release on 10th April in five languages: Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada. A grand release press meet was held in Hyderabad.

Lyricist Rambabu Gosala said, “I wrote the songs for the Telugu version of ‘Palli Chattambi.’ This is my third film with Tovino Thomas. Earlier, I wrote songs for his films ‘Mayanadhi’ and ‘Vyuham.’ Tovino Thomas is famous across India. Kayadu’s first film was ‘Alluri,’ for which I wrote all the songs. Jakes Bejoy is a very talented music director. After ‘Thudarum’ and ‘Kotha Lokah,’ I am now writing lyrics for this film as well. I hope this movie becomes a big success.”

Actor Shatru said, “This is my first Malayalam film. I was surprised when the director narrated the story, it felt very interesting. I’m playing a key role in this movie, and I dubbed for my character myself. It was a happy experience acting alongside Tovino.”

Associate Producer Meghashyam said, “I thank Eluru Sreenu, Bunny Vas, Maruthi, TG Vishwaprasad, Vivek, and all the elders who supported me and helped me stand on this stage. ‘Pallichattambi’ is an emotional action entertainer. Director Dijo Jose Antony has made it very engaging. Our entire team worked very hard, and the output is excellent. This is my second film with Tovino and Kayadu. Bunny Vasu garu is supporting our Telugu release. I request the audience to watch and support our film in theatres.”

Distributor Vetri said, “‘Pallichattambi’ is a film that audiences must watch. Director Dijo has made it brilliantly. Jakes’ music will be a major highlight. Thanks to Bunny Vasu garu for supporting the Telugu release.”

Producer Chanakya said, “Our film will appeal to all sections of the audience. Director Dijo has made it in a way that everyone will like. We hope to celebrate the success of this film very soon.”

Producer Chaitanya said, “We’re happy to see so many guests attend our event. This is our first attempt as producers. We hope the audience watches and supports our film in theatres.”

Producer Charan said, “We’re happy to have gone from Nellore to Kerala and made such a big Malayalam film. Tovino became like a family member to us. His performance will surprise everyone. Kayadu Lohar has done a memorable role in her career. Shatru played an important role. Thanks to Bunny Vas anna for supporting the Telugu release. Director Maruthi is a good friend, though he couldn’t attend today. He guided us a lot during the making of this film. Meghashyam also gave us great support, helping us complete the film without tension. We believe this film will bring great success to our banner.”

Producer and Distributor Bunny Vas said, “Maruthi garu introduced this producers’ team to me. After speaking with them, I realized they were making a prestigious film. They took me to Kochi and showed me the film. It was surprising to see Telugu producers go to Kerala and make such a huge film. Technically, the film is of very high quality and grand scale. For Telugu audiences, it will feel like a fresh commercial film. Usually, we think of Malayalam movies as concept-oriented, but ‘Palli Chattambi’ is a large-scale commercial entertainer. It will be a big success in Telugu as well. Meghashyam, who worked with us years ago, is now an associate producer on this film, it makes me very happy. We released Tovino’s ‘2018’ in Telugu, and it was a big success. His performance and action sequences in this film are impressive – I was reminded of Mohanlal. Kayadu will gain many more fans after this film. I really liked the director’s execution and editing. If you want to watch a new kind of commercial film, watch ‘Pallichattambi’ in theatres.”

Director Dijo Jose Antony said, “This is my fourth film as a director. Telugu audiences appreciated my previous film ‘Jana Gana Mana’ with Prithviraj Sukumaran. Director Rajamouli garu also responded positively to that film. ‘Pallichattambi’ will also appeal to you. It has a simple story that connects with everyone. The main theme is that all humans are one. I made the film with the concept ‘Love, Live, Love.’ ‘Pallichattambi’ is actually a term and represents a character in the story, so we retained the same title in all languages. The film is set in 1950s Kerala. Even though times and politics change, human struggles remain the same. We wanted to bring that authenticity to the screen, so we made it as a period film.”

Actress Kayadu Lohar said, “‘Pallichattambi’ is a special film for me. I played the character Rebecca, which is very close to my heart. Audiences will love not just her beauty but also her personality. It is like a dream role for me. I thank director Dijo for giving me such a wonderful character. Our team went through a long journey for this film. It will definitely be a success, and we will celebrate together. Tovino is a great co-star and very inspiring to work with. Without ‘Pallichattambi,’ there is no Rebecca. It’s a beautiful film. Please watch it in theatres on the 10th. You will walk out with a strong emotional feeling that will stay with you.”

Hero Tovino Thomas said, “Director Dijo and I have been planning to do this project for a few years, and it finally happened. The film is set in the 1950s. We did a lot of research to recreate that era authentically. We have presented a 1950s story in a way that appeals to 2026 audiences. Such a film is only possible with a passionate team. Dijo and I are already discussing more projects together. He became a good friend during the shoot. Producers Charan, Chaitanya, and Chanakya worked as a team to turn their dream into reality. Without producers like Noufal and Brijesh, a dream project like ‘Pallichattambi’ wouldn’t have been completed, they are the backbone of this film. Shatru, who played an important role, also became a good friend. Kayadu prepared a lot for her role, and I could see her passion for acting. Acting in multiple languages at once is not easy, but she is impressing audiences across languages. I’m happy to work with such a co-star. From 10th April , ‘Palli Chattambi’ will become everyone’s movie.”
