Mumbai: Actor Aditi Rao Hydari on Wednesday said she is looking forward to her upcoming Malayalam movie 'Sufiyum Sujatayum', which is the first film in the language to have a direct-to-OTT release.
Also starring Jayasurya, the musical love story is set to premiere on July 3 on Amazon Prime Video.
Aditi said that 'Sufiyum Sujatayum' is a special film for me. I been lucky to work with some incredible people across India, and this film marks my debut as the leading lady of a Malayalam film. The film is an innocent love story, where love is unburdened by prejudices and discrimination.
"I'm looking forward to the audience's response. I hope they get immersed in the world of Sufi and Sujata like I did and I hope everyone makes their own special connection to the characters and the story," she added.
The streaming platform also unveiled the trailer of 'Sufiyum Sujatayum'.
Amitabh Bachchan-Ayushmann Khurrana-starrer 'Gulabo Sitabo', helmed by Shoojit Sircar, and 'Penguin', the Tamil/Telugu thriller, featuring Keerthy Suresh, hit the platform this month.
Vidya Balan's 'Shakuntala Devi' biopic is scheduled to directly head to Amazon in near future, skipping a theatrical release owing to the coronavirus pandemic-induced shutdown.
