Malayalam director Kamal’s biopic of trailblazing poet and writer Kamala Das is looking at a Christmas release. Titled Aami and starring Manju Warrier, Aami also stars Murali Gopy and Anoop Menon.

Aami has one shooting schedule left, which Kamal hopes to wrap up by November, the Times of India reported.

The biopic represents the first attempt to bring Das’s feminist poetry and confessional writings in Malayalam and English, including her autobiography My Story, to the screen. Aami has the sanction of the Estate of Kamala Das, which is run by her heirs. In a previous interview with Scroll.in, Das’s son, Jaisurya, had said, “The movie will show all facets of Kamala Das. There will be a lot of fiction. That is how movies work. But it is a genuine attempt to show all the controversies she faced.”
