The trailer of Malayalam film Eka has been released. Written and directed by debutant King Jones, the film features a group of fresh faces both behind and in front of the camera. Produced by Manoj K Sreedhar, Eka stars Rehana Fathima in the main lead. The film is also touted to be the first Indian film that discusses inter-sexuality.

In a recent interview, Rehana Fathima had stated that entire crew of the film goes nude while filming her nude scene in Eka.

" We were shooting a scene in which I had to be naked. There were 18 crew members on the set. The scenes were not easy and the director has a habit of going for 20-25 takes. I was nervous. Are you conscious of being naked? , the director asked me. "Yes", was my answer. The director then asked everyone on the set to take off their clothes. The cameraman, assistant directors, light staff, production staff and even the producer had to be naked if they wanted to be on the set for that scene . Nudity also means innocence, the director told us. Only the ones with the purest of hearts can be naked. Everyone got to work without any clothes. There was no gender bias there. It helped me overcome my fears and inhibitions. It was a different experience, like it was with most scenes during Eka's shoot. ", Rehana Fathima said.
