After a gap of two months since its theatrical release, the Arjun Ashokan-starrer drama film ‘Thalavara’ has officially made its digital debut. Despite receiving positive reviews from audiences and critics, the film couldn’t make a significant mark at the box office, largely due to the buzz surrounding Kalyani Priyadarshan’s superhero film ‘Lokah’ which was trending at that time.
