Director Sanal Kumar Sashidharan said that it is true that he admitted his love to Manju Warrier. Sanal also revealed that she gave him dates for the film 'Kayattam' after keeping aside all her other projects. Sanal's response was in an interview with Kaumudy TV's Straight Line.
‘Manju Warrier is the reason for the film Kayattam. She was the one who first messaged me. The message was asking for the link of Sexy Durga. I couldn't believe it initially. She saw the film later and told me that she liked it very much. She also informed her interest in working with me.
While talking about the script of Kayattam, I told her that a lot of accidents are likely to happen. She said there is no problem. Manju was ready to shoot in August after keeping aside her projects. Shooting with her felt like a miracle happening before me.
Sanal Kumar Sasidharan admitted to have proposed to Manju Warrier. He said that he had felt many times that she was attracted to him and it was evident from certain behaviours. At one point when he told Manju that he feels a spiritual attraction towards her, he revealed her reaction in an interview in Straight Line.
