However, director Blessy has confirmed that the uncut version of the film starring Prithviraj Sukumaran will be released soon. According to the latest rumours, the highly anticipated Aadujeevitham OTT version will have a longer runtime. The makers are reportedly planning to release the uncut version of the film on Disney+ Hotstar shortly after it concludes its theatrical run. Given The Goat Life's successful theatrical run, the film may follow in the footsteps of Premalu and Manjummel Boys and have a longer theatrical run.
