The Malayalam film starring Mohanlal has received official clearance to film scenes at the Sabarimala temple, subject to stringent religious guidelines imposed by the authorities.
The Malayalam film "Athimanoharam", featuring superstar Mohanlal, has been granted permission by the Sabarimala authorities to shoot on the temple premises. The clearance comes with a set of strict religious conditions that the crew must follow. These conditions include restrictions on the timing of shoots, prohibition of loud music, and ensuring that no rituals or pilgrim activities are disrupted. The decision marks a significant development, as commercial film production has rarely been allowed in the sacred site. Film makers and fans alike have welcomed the move, hoping it will bring a new dimension to the portrayal of the revered pilgrimage.
