About L2 Empuraan

In L2 Empuraan, Mohanlal returns as Stephen Nedumpally, aka Khureshi Ab’raam. With the help of Zayed (Prithviraj), he returns from overseas to turn his attention back home, where the CM Jathin Ramdas (Tovino Thomas) needs to be stopped.

The film faced controversy after several right-wing activists took issue with scenes alluding to the riots of 2002 and the portrayal of a right-wing party with veiled references to the Indian political landscape. The film was re-released on April 2 after 24 cuts, while actor and producer Mohanlal expressed regret over the criticism levelled at the film due to certain scenes.

Mohanlal had issued a statement acknowledging that certain aspects of the film had caused distress to some of his fans and assured that the team had decided to remove such references.
