Deepak Dev Hints at “Azrael” as Title for Mohanlal’s Lucifer Part 3
Renowned composer Deepak Dev has sparked speculation about the title of the much-anticipated third installment in the Lucifer trilogy, starring Mohanlal, following his recent revelations in an exclusive interview with Club FM. Deepak Dev, known for his distinctive musical contributions to Malayalam cinema, hinted that “Azrael” could potentially be the title for Lucifer Part 3. The speculation arises from a pivotal song in the climax of Empuraan, the second part of the trilogy, featuring the resonant vocals of Usha Uthup repeating the word “Azrael.”
In the interview, Deepak Dev reflected on the creative process behind the trilogy’s titles, noting that similar organic developments occurred with the naming of Empuraan after a significant song in the first installment, Lucifer. He recalled discussions with director Prithviraj Sukumaran, who sought a commanding voice for the song, which inadvertently led to the title reveal for the subsequent film.
Fans and enthusiasts of the Lucifer series are eagerly awaiting an official confirmation regarding the title of Part 3, amidst reports suggesting a grand launch event in Dubai. Producer Antony Perumbavoor has affirmed that Lucifer Part 3 is indeed in the pipeline, further heightening anticipation among the audience. As the saga continues to captivate audiences with its compelling narrative and stellar performances, the revelation of “Azrael” as a potential title sets the stage for another monumental chapter in Malayalam cinema.
This development comes in the wake of L2: Empuraan’s successful theatrical run, despite controversies surrounding certain sequences. The film has garnered over 220 crores worldwide within just six days of its release, reaffirming its box office prowess and solidifying its place as a pivotal franchise in Indian cinema.
