Padayottam is a Malayalam Movie starring Biju Menon, Ravi Singh, Dileesh Pothan, Saiju Kurup, Lijo Joseph, Anu Sithara, Lijo Jose Pellissery in pivotal roles. The movie is directed by Rafeek Ibrahim.

Padayottam is an enjoyable timepass comedy entertainer with no doubt. The movie falls under the black comedy genre with the backdrop of a gangster theme. The screenplay by Arun AR and Ajai Rahu is engaging and the actors are tailored made for the characters of the movie.

Padayottam is an engaging movie, with Biju Menon showing his potential. Biju Menon (Chenkkal Raghu) is the center point of the movie. Biju Menon has performed well in the movie, he is the perfect choice for the role. He plays a powerful goon, yet he makes us laugh.

Dileesh Pothan (Senen), Sudhi Koppa (Renchu) and Saiju Kurup (Sreekuttan) play as best friends in the movie. Their combination scene is very good and adorable, and Basil Joseph (Pinku) has done a decent performance in the film. The entire the road trip from Trivandrum to Kasargod is hilarious. The bonding between Biju Menon and 3 friends worked out well.

The songs of the movie by Prashant Pillai completely gel with the story. Cinematographer Satheesh Kurup has captured well the moods of all character of the movie. The scriptwriters Arun A. R, Ajai Rahul, Sonu Surendran have delivered a good script. They need special appreciation. Director Rafeek Ibrahim has provided us with a decent entertainer movie with all commercial ingredients.

With no doubt, Padayottam is a dark comedy which will appeal to all section of Audience. I genuinely fell this movie can be remade in other languages. I also suggest Actor #VijaySethupathi remake the movie in Tamil as #Soodhu Kavvum second part. Congrats to the whole team.
