What is Padmini about?

Padmini has Kunchacko Boban, in an old chocolate hero avatar which he essayed in the 90s movies. The film tells the tale of a college lecturer who faces an embarrassing situation after his wife elopes, on their marriage day. Vincy Aloshious plays the wife character of Kunchacko Boban in this comedy drama. It is the second movie in which Vincy and Kunchacko share the screen after their previous film Bheemante Vazhi. 

Besides being a comedy-drama, the film also serves as a humorous take on society. Padmini is the third directorial venture of Senna Hegde and stands out from his other movies. His Thinkalazhcha Nishachayam was treated as a satire while the 1744 Alto was a quirky experimental one. When It comes to Padmini, he attempted a traditional comedy-drama with all the elements required for a commercial movie.
