“I’ve viewed scenes from ‘Half-Life.’ The shoot hit a snag midway. During that time, we gathered – Prithviraj, Blessy, myself, and other key individuals – discussing necessary alterations for the second half. However, I haven’t seen the complete picture. The final segments are yet to be revealed, encompassing VFX intricacies and sound mixing,” shared Benjamin.Inspired by Benjamin’s acclaimed novel, Prithviraj takes on the pivotal role of Najeeb in this film written and directed by Blessy. Following the 2013 release of Kalimann, Blessy embarked on this cinematic venture. Prithviraj’s portrayal in this film is notably challenging and stands as a unique endeavor in his career. Presently, the film is in the post-production phase. Benjamin now sheds light on his acquaintance with the cinematic rendition of ‘Goat Life,’ revealing he has seen scenes covering half of the movie.
Expressing optimism for the film, Benjamin stated, “I was highly impressed by what I witnessed in the first half. The team approached it with remarkable dedication.” Addressing concerns about whether Prithviraj’s stardom could potentially impact the film negatively, he responded, “I was anxious about the possibility of Prithviraj’s established image burdening the film. However, upon observing him on the set for the first time, I realized Prithviraj embodies not a burden, but a standard of quality. In ‘Adu Jeevita,’ you will witness a Prithviraj distinct from any we’ve seen before,” Benjamin concluded.
