After clearing all legal hurdles, Shane Nigam's Haal is officially set to hit theatres on December 25. The romantic drama joins a crowded Christmas box office that already includes Vrusshabha starring Mohanlal, Sarvam Maya headlined by Nivin Pauly, and Valathu Vashathe Kallan featuring Biju Menon and Joju George.For Haal, the confirmation of its release date marks the end of a long and closely watched chapter. Directed by debutant Veeraa and written by Nishad Koya, the film had been in the news for months following objections raised by the Censor Board of Film Certification.
