India’s first AI Technology-based film, Monica: An AI Story has grabbed attention since its announcement. Now, its first look poster has been released.

Aparna Mulberry, recognised for her participation in Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 4 and her significant social media following, has been chosen as the central character for the story. Despite being born in America, the actress is quite well-versed in Malayalam, thanks to her stay in Kerala during which she taught English and assisted Malayalis in improving their pronunciation and intonation. She is famous on the Internet due to her creative and funny videos. She goes by the name of Inverted Coconut on Instagram.

Produced by Mansoor Palloor under the banner of Zams Production House, Monica: An AI Story promises to offer a futuristic cinematic experience. The film’s shooting took place in various locations across Kerala, including Mahe, Kochi, and Kasargod. The movie is also expected to be dubbed in multiple languages to ensure a broader reach of the film.
