Askar Ali, who made his debut in Honey Bee 2.5,  will have his second movie, Chembarathipoo, hitting the screens this week. And, according to director Arun Vaiga, the movie is a coming-of-age drama. "It is about how Vinod rediscovers himself, and how his love life changes him. Chembarathipoo traces two time periods of the protagonist's life," says Arun.

Chemparathipoo has Askar playing an aspiring director. "The movie is in the format of a flashback where Vinod's tale unravels. His life is deeply influenced by his love affairs. Aditi Ravi and debutante Parvathy Arun play his lovers," says the director. Chemparathipoo also has Vaisakh Nair and Aju Varghese in significant roles.

The tracks and teaser of Chembarathipoo, that was released, was already a success. The song "Kannil Kannoru" sung by Vineeth Sreenivasan was also received well.
