Mumbai, (PTI) Actor Prithviraj Sukumaran says it took him and director Blessy a decade to mount their passion project “The Goat Life”, a real-life survival drama, as revenue models in Malayalam cinema weren’t as streamlined back then as they are today.
Based on the 2008 bestselling novel “Aadujeevitham” by Benyamin, the film follows Najeeb, a Malayali immigrant labourer who finds himself forced into slavery as a goatherd in the secluded farm of Saudi Arabia.
It was never about funds, said Prithviraj as Blessy has also pulled double duty as a producer.
