Thalam Poyi: Ayyappanum Koshiyum new song out!

As ‘Ayyappanum Koshiyum’ is set to hit screens tomorrow, a new song from the film has been released online. The track titled ‘Thalam Poyi’ sounds very intense and carries the mood of the film. Rafeeq Ahammed has penned the lyrics and is set to tunes by composer Jakes Bejoy. Jakes has also lent his vocals along with Sangeetha.

Earlier, the makers had released a very interesting folk number from the film. A tribal woman named Nanchamma had written the lyrics and sung that track. Prithviraj has even mentioned that ‘Ayyappanum Koshiyum’ has one of the most unusual soundtracks for a mainstream film in Malayalam. He praised Jakes Bejoy for delivering director Sachy’s vision to perfection.

The story of ‘Ayyappanum Koshiyum’ is set in the Attapadi region. It is centred around a conflict between a policeman and a retired solider over a legal issue. Biju Menon plays Ayappan Nair, a middle-aged cop and Prithviraj essays the part of Koshy Kurian, a havildar who is retired from army after 16 years of service. Though it is made as an entertainer, it also has a political subtext and explores issues like class divide and racism.

‘Ayyappanum Koshiyum’ is produced by veteran filmmaker Ranjith along with PM Sasidharan under the banner of Gold Coin Motion Picture Company.
