It’s a wrap for Tovino Thomas, Asif Ali, and Kunchacko Boban’s ‘2018’ based on the Kerala floods

The filming of Jude Anthany Joseph’s upcoming film ‘2018 - Everyone is a hero’ has been completed. The makers wrapped up the shoot on Sunday (Nov 13). Based on the 2018 catastrophic floods in Kerala, ‘2018’ has an ensemble star cast including Tovino Thomas, Asif Ali, Kunchacko Boban, and Aparna Balamurali, among others.
The team has completed the shoot recently and the director also confirmed the same. “Its official PACKUP for “2018- EVERY ONE IS A HERO”.Thanks to my producers Venu Kunnappilly, C K Padmakumar, Anto Joseph my wonderful team n the talented artists Tovino Thomas, Asif Ali, Kunchacko Boban, Narain, Vineeth Sreenivasan, Aparna Balamurali, Lal , Kalayiarasan, Aju Varghese, Indrans, Sudheesh, Nileen Sandra, Gilu Joseph, Jafar Idukki, Sidhique, Renji Panicker, Tanvi Ram, Sshivadha, Gauthami Nair, Vineetha Koshy, Vridhi Vishal, Devanandha, Pranav, Suresh Kumar, Sreeja Ravi, Shobha Mohan, Lali, Shebin Benson, Harikrishnan, Rony, Pauly Wilson, Janardanan, Joy Mathew and 110 more wonderful actors( I can’t write the whole list) but I thank them all from bottom of my heart.

Speaking to Kochi Times earlier, the director said, “The story — an action adventure, survival thriller, emotional drama and inspirational story rolled into one — is of such a big scale, it cannot be confined to a narrative of just one character. To do justice to the story of the 2018 floods, I had to bring together the stories of several people. In fact, the film progresses mainly through the stories of nine people, apart from several parallel stories. This required about 125 artistes and I figured, the audience would better connect and even remember the characters — some of whom have gaps of several scenes before they reappear on screen — if they are established actors, or it might get confusing. So, the fact that it is a multi-starrer is a requirement of the film.”
