First-look poster of Mohanlal's Kunjali Marakkar is out!..

The first-look poster of Mohanlal-Priyadarshan movie 'Kunjali Marakkar' is finally out.

The poster,which shows Mohanlal adorning the costume of Kunjali Marakkar, was released by the actor on his Facebook page.

The poster, which shows Mohanlal looking through a binocular, has interestingly garnered wide discussion over the right pose. While some commented the actor was closing the wrong eye, while others argued that the viewer gets a better vision with a closed eye!

The film's crew has confirmed that Mohanlal's son Pranav, who has endeared himself to Malayali fans after 'Aadhi', will be appearing in the first half of the movie. This is not the first time that Pranav is essaying Mohanlal's younger avatar. He had earlier represented the childhood of the actor in the 2001 film 'Onnaman'. Besides, he had made a guest appearance in the Mohanlal film 'Sagar Alias Jacky Reloaded' released in 2009.
