Kurup is a Dulquer Salman movie that is eagerly awaited by the audience. The film is based on the life of Sukumara Kurupp, the biggest catch in Kerala. The first look poster and teaser of the film was well received by the audience. Film representative Chacko’s wife and son have filed a lawsuit against the current Kurup film.
Dulquer Salman’s lawyer sent notices to Shantamma (62) and her son Jith (36) at Alappuzha Karalakam, Alappuzha, asking them to meet before the release of the film and to convince them that there is nothing in the film that glorifies Sukumara Kurup or defames Chacko.
Shantamma was six months pregnant when Chacko was killed. Jitin is the only son. In the teaser, the lawyer said in the notice sent by Advocate TT Sudheesh that the film was based on a real incident and contained a justification for Sukumara Kurup’s misdeeds. The news about this has been released by Manorama.
