The Tamil and Telugu dubbed versions of Nivin Pauly and Mamitha Baiju's Bethlehem Kudumba Unit will hit theatres on September 4, the makers announced on Monday. The announcement comes as the Malayalam original, which hit theatres on August 21, continues its strong run with packed houses across Kerala and overseas.
Directed by Girish AD, the film follows Ashley (Mamitha), who falls for her older neighbour Justin (Nivin), a charismatic middle-aged man around 12-13 years her senior. Set against a close-knit neighbourhood and a large family, the film blends romance, humour and slice-of-life drama.
Bethlehem Kudumba Unit opened to a strong response on Friday and has emerged as Nivin’s biggest opener. Girish and Kiran Josey has co-written the film, produced by Dileesh Pothan, Fahadh Faasil and Syam Pushkaran under the banner of Bhavana Studios.
Future Runup Films is distributing the dubbed versions of Bethlehem Kudumba Unit in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana.
