Padayottam (2018 film)

Padayottam is an Indian Malayalam-language black comedy gangster film directed by Rafeek Ibrahim, with Biju Menon in the lead role.

Their revenge is cut short when they find the phone's owner belongs to Kasargode all the way at the other end of the state.

Reghu's newly-repaired car breaks down, forcing them to hitch a ride on a college tour bus.

They meet up with Sree's friend - Dominic who offers to lodge them at the house of his boss named Baba, whose daughter's marriage is to take place the next day.

The gang reluctantly take leave of Baba and seek out local gangster Britto to help them get to Kasargode.

The eternally suicidal Britto decides to pull a hit along the way, and ends up ditching them to make his escape.

After an uneventful ride, the gang reach Kasargode the next morning and meet their local contact - Ratheesh, who informs them that the man they are pursuing is Dulquer Salman, the elder son of a major gangster named Samad.

In a mid-credits scene, Senan and gang arrive at Reghu's house to apologise, but are interrupted when Britto offers a gift, having kidnapped Salman again.

The film score was composed and arranged by Prashant Pillai, song lyrics were written by Hari Narayanan.

A review on SilverScreen India praised the cast, but acknowledged "a partially incoherent story-line" of the film.
