Director Sanal Kumar Sasidharan has revealed that his team including actress Manju Warrier has reached to safety in Manali. The director also shared his experience about the last 10 flood-hit days during which his team was trapped in Himachal Pradesh.

The 25 member crew has been in Himachal Pradesh for the shooting of the film 'Kayattam.' According to the director, they have already completed the portions which were required to be shot at the extremely dangerous trekking locations in the state. However, situations turned worse once the snowfall began. He said that the entire team got trapped for two days as there were no means to communicate with the outer world.

According to Sanalkumar, it was the mountain expedition group which helped his team to reach Chatru village. He also thanked the Himachal Pradesh government for acting quickly to ensure their safety. The director also took the opportunity to applaud actress Manju Warrier for showing courage during the difficult situation. "With this unbelievable film journey, I came to know more about Manju Warrier. She is a great artist as well as a strong woman. My entire crew is safe now," he added on his Facebook page.
