Antony Varghese's latest film, Kondal, has hit the big screen today (September 13). Given the devoted following of the actor's previous action dramas, there was a great deal of expectation for the movie. Meanwhile, the makers have confirmed its digital streaming platform to be Netflix following its theatrical release.

Pepe's Kondal to release on Netflix

Kondal's digital streaming platform has been confirmed in advance, unlike the other Onam releases such as Kishkindha Kaandam and Ajayante Randam Moshanam. After it concludes its theatrical run, this action drama will be available on Netflix. It is reasonable to anticipate that following its 40-day theatrical run, the film will be accessible online. 

Netflix also offers RDX, which became one of the highest-grossing films in Malayalam last year. In this 2023 Onam release film, Shane Nigam, Neeraj Madhav, and Antony Varghese portrayed the main characters. 

What is Kondal all about?

The life of protagonist Manuel is the centre of the story. He had to leave Munambam Harbour to start working on St Anthony's boat because of a major conflict that arose in Anchuthengu, his hometown. Manuel's life and the lives of those who work on the boat are altered by unforeseen circumstances. There are intense action scenes that are shot in the middle of the sea in this movie. 

At times, Antony's portrayal in Kondal bears similarities to his outrageous past characters, such as Vincent Pepe in Angamaly Diaries and Lali in Ajagajantharam. Action movie lovers and enthusiasts will find the movie to be a true delight this holiday season.

Weekend Blockbusters, the production company that brought us the hit film RDX, has produced Kondal, which is helmed by debutante Ajit Mampally. The remarkable ensemble of Kondal includes Kannada actor Raj B Shetty, Shabeer Kallarakkal, Nandu, Manikanda Rajan, Pramod Veliyanadu, Prathibha, Gauthami Nair, Usha, Jaya Kurup, Sarath Sabha, Siraj and Rahul Rajagopal. Sam CS created both the original score and songs for it. Sreejith Sarang is the film's editor, and Deepak D Menon is the cinematographer.
