Sibi Malayil who has given us films like Kireedam, Aakashadooth, His Highness Abdullah, Kanakkinavu and Thaniyavarthanam has completed 25 years in the industry. Sibi has stricken a chord for directing films which stands in reality and is enjoyable for the masses, which won him national awards as well as box office success.

His films redefined the Malayalam movies in 90s. Sibi is often associated with the legendary script writer Lohithadas who passed away last year. As they had a good rapport as director and writer, Sibi failed terribly after Lohithadas went on to direct his own films, which was not a great decision.

The director is back with his new film Apoorva Ragam which stars Asif Ali of Ritu, Nishan and Nithya Menon in the lead roles. Most of the remaining characters are also entrants.

Vidyasagar has scored music. Camera is by Ajayan Vincent. GS Anand and Najeeb Koya write story and screenplay for this unusual love story. Dialogues are by AR Abhimanyu. The art direction is by Prasanth Madhav. Thyagarajan looks after the Stunt, and choreography is by Shanthi. The film's shooting has been completed in Bangalore and Kochi and will be released this month.

Sibi's earlier campus movies were pranayavarnagal and Devadoothan. The film is produced by Siyad Kokker under the banner Kokker's films.
