It is finally wrap up time for the Tovino Thomas starrer Kala. Putting out a message on social media about doing the film, Tovino wrote, “Years ago with cinema in my dreams, I used to be in the company of this same team of Kala, discussing and making short films. Now, we have made cinema, and with the purest of passions… Kala was hard. Real hard. But this mutual love we had for cinema made it all possible. And I’m sure this team’s passion will make Kala all the more wholesome as it reaches you. Let's hope that happens soon.”

It may be noted here that while shooting for a scene in this film, Tovino had suffered from some internal injuries and was admitted to the ICU of a private hospital. It took the actor several weeks to recover and return to action.

Directed by Rohith VS, Kala has Tovino and Divya Pillai in the lead roles with a foreign breed canine playing an important role. Tovino plays the role Shaji while Divya Pillai plays his wife Vidya. Dawn Vincent is composing music for Kala with Akhil George handling the camera and Livingston Mathew doing the edits.
