The announcement has generated massive excitement, especially after the strong response to the film's first-look posters and promotional material. With a sprawling production that spanned over 100 locations across South India and nearly 11 months of shooting, I Am Game is shaping up to be one of Malayalam cinema's biggest event films of the year.
