'Maharaja Hostel' cast react to online negativity

The team behind Malayalam horror-comedy 'Maharaja Hostel' addressed a negative social media campaign against the film.

Newcomer actors Akhil NRD, Akhil Shah, Sharath Babu, and Sajin Cherukayil urged audiences to watch the film in theatres before judging.

The cast admitted to performance shortcomings due to their youth in the industry but noted that theatre responses have been overwhelmingly positive.

Directed by Charu Wakan, the film is a low-budget production with limited resources, and the actors performed according to the director's vision.

The team appealed for audience encouragement and asked viewers not to be influenced by campaigns urging them to avoid the film.
