As actor Dulquer Salmaan’s long awaited Malayalam thriller Kurup, which was rumoured to premiere on an OTT platform, has been confirmed to release in theatres on November 12, the makers have unveiled the first single from the movie in all south languages and Hindi. Titled Pakaliravukal in Malayalam, the romantic song is set in the 80s era and features the lead pair Dulquer Salmaan and Sobhita Dhulipala.

While unveiling the song, Dulquer shared a nramd new picture from the movie and wrote, "The first video song of Kurup is out. Link in bio and in stories. This is my favourite track and something I feel is an instant classic. It's been picturised across states with incredible production design and period capture. The visuals give you a glimpse into the amazing world of Kurup. And this is just a little taster of the magic that Sushin Shyam has woven throughout the film with his music. I hope you enjoy it." The freshness of the song crooned by Neha Nair and the lead pair's onscreen chemistry is winning the internet for all the right reasons. No wonder the video song has already clocked over 1 million Youtube views in less than a day of its release.

Kurup, directed by Srinath Rajendran, is a biopic that narrates the story of Kerala's most wanted fugitive Sukumara Kurup, who after reading a crime involving embezzlement of insurance money in Germany, got motivated to insure and script his own death by murdering a man, Chacko, to lay his hands on the money. Bankrolled by Dulquer Salamaan’s production company - Wayfare films in association with M Star Entertainment, the movie will be released in five languages - Malayalam, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada and Telugu.
