The story of the film is based around a lonely aged man, who is gifted a robot by his son. It has been speculated that Tharshan will play the role of the son in the Tamil version. The original Malayalam sci-fi comedy-drama was directed by Ratheesh Balakrishnan Poduval and is said to be inspired from the Hollywood flick Robot & Frank.
I still remember the words #Losliya said during #Tharshan elimination..She wants to see his 1st movie on big screen along with him but now they are acting on the same movie which may end up as their first movie..
