Jeethu Joseph has long been considered a reliable name in Mollywood, often seen as a minimum-guarantee director. Even when lead actors face rough patches in their careers, a Jeethu Joseph film tends to perform well. Take Mohanlal, for instance — in the early 2020s, he had a string of flops with Aaraattu, 12th Man, Monster, and Alone. Then came Neru, directed by Jeethu Joseph, which turned out to be a commercial success, proving his knack for connecting with audiences.
Similarly, Asif Ali, one of the leads in Mirage, had faced a series of flops as a protagonist. His previous collaboration with Jeethu Joseph, Kooman, had been a hit, setting high expectations for Mirage. Given this track record and considering that Jeethu Joseph is known for his thrillers, audience expectations were huge for Mirage. Unfortunately, it failed to live up to them at the box office. However, the film is now set to release on OTT, giving audiences a chance to watch the thriller from the comfort of their homes.
Mirage OTT Release Date & Platform
Mirage (2025) is going to be available on SonyLIV from October 20, 2025, onwards. Besides the original Malayalam version, the film will also be dubbed into six other languages: Tamil, Hindi, Bengali, Marathi, Kannada, and Telugu.
