Joju George Celebrates Birthday with the First Look of “Varavu”

The poster shows Joju intensely staring through a shattered jeep windshield, signalling that Varavu will be a high-octane experience. Released with the tagline “Game of Survival”, the first look encapsulates the essence of the film. Set against the backdrop of the Malabar region, Varavu revolves around the life struggles of a character named Polly, also known as Polachan. The first look hints at the signature “Joju magic” audiences can expect.

Joining Joju in the action sequences is Malayalam’s action queen, Vani Vishwanath, adding extra strength to the film’s thrilling moments. Shaji Kailas’ direction combined with Joju’s powerful performance promises a unique cinematic experience. This marks the first collaboration between Joju George and Shaji Kailas.
