Sudev Nair looks fierce as Padaveedan Nambi in Vinayan’s Pathonpatham Noottandu character poster

The makers of Vinayan’s period drama Pathonpatham Noottandu unveiled the second character poster from the movie, this time featuring Sudev Nair as Padaveedan Nambi. 

The character is referred to as the deputy chief Travancore Army in the character poster. The caption of the poster says that he was someone who has dominated everyone through his physical power as well as authority. “Whenever Nambi and Velayudhan had confronted each other, it had always resulted in a resounding battle cry in the land,” read the caption. 

Last week, the makers released the poster of Anoop Menon’s character as the Maharaja of Travancore.

The movie has Siju Wilson playing the hero, a 19th century caste and kalaripayattu warrior Aarattupuzha Velayudha Panicker. Kayadu Lohar plays Nangeli in the movie, which had Palakkad and Cherthala as its main locations. 

The film, which has music composed by M Jayachandran and cinematography by Shaji Kumar, also has Deepti Sati, Chemban Vinod Jose, Alecnier Ley Lopez, Indrans and Suresh Krishna in pivotal roles. Chemban plays Kayamkulam Kochunni in the film. 

The big budget film, produced by Gokulam Gopalan, also has several battle sequences and the lead actors had trained in horse riding and kalaripayattu for their roles. 

Meanwhile, Sudev Nair has a host of interesting projects lined up including Sibi Malayil’s Kothth, Shaji Kailas’ Kaduva and Amal Neerad’s Bheeshma Parvam. The actor is also part of two Kannada films Twenty One Hours and Old Monk. He also plays the antagonist in Rajeev Ravi’s Thuramukham and Sanal Kumar Sasidharan’s Vazhakku, which has Tovino Thomas in the lead.
