Excel Entertainment Boards Malayalam Thriller ‘Half’

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani’s Excel Entertainment, along with AA Films, have acquired the rights to present and distribute the Malayalam vampire action thriller “Half” in Hindi across North India. The film was selected for Toronto Midnight Madness.

The selection, titled “Half,” comes from Fragrant Nature Film Creations (FNFC). This marks Excel Entertainment’s first foray into releasing films originating from the Malayalam-language film industry.

Excel Entertainment will collaborate with AA Films to handle distribution of “Half” in Hindi throughout North India. No release date has been announced at this time, but the partnership signals an expansion for Excel Entertainment beyond its traditional Hindi-language productions. The move allows them to bring a unique genre offering – a Malayalam vampire action thriller – to a wider audience.
