Prithviraj Sukumaran on Cold Case: When I heard the story, it was an immediate yes

Prithviraj Sukumaran will next be seen in the Malayalam film Cold Case which is slated to release on Amazon Prime Video on 30th June 2021. The actor plays the role of a cop in the movie.

Well, earlier Prithviraj has played the role of a cop in films like Memories, Police Police, Mumbai Police, 7th Day, and Raavanaa. However, the actor says that his role in Cold Case is different from his previous movies.


Prithviraj stated, "I'm really looking forward to audiences to watch Cold Case. Playing the role of a cop was different this time as all my earlier cop films were character-based, but this one is plot-based. When I heard the story, it was an immediate yes for me as this is a hybrid genre film that is really well-written. It has been a great learning experience for me as well!"

Recently, the trailer of the film was released. While sharing the trailer with his fans, Prithviraj had tweeted, “There's a lot more to the case than just evidence and facts. #ColdCase Trailer out now. https://bit.ly/CCTrailer_ Watch #ColdCaseOnPrime June 30, @PrimeVideoIN @AditiBalan @LakshmiPriyaaC @suchitrapillai #Athmiya @Gibin_Gopinath #Pooja @IamAntoJoseph #TanuBalak #Jomon #Shameer.”

  • Film sets Shakespeare inside a wealthy British South Asian family
  • Directed by Aneil Karia and in cinemas 6 February 2025

Riz Ahmed has entered Hamlet in a way British cinema has not quite seen. The new Hamlet trailer has been released by Universal, giving the first proper look at Aneil Karia’s modern take on Shakespeare and placing the story inside a British South Asian business empire. It is due in cinemas on 6 February, and the footage shows a tense, controlled Ahmed moving through grief, suspicion and family power.

The film teams Ahmed and Karia again after The Long Goodbye, which won the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short. That success informs this production. This is the first time a major UK studio release has grounded Hamlet within a South Asian household for a wide audience.
