Director Jibu Jacob is all praise for team Padayottam!

Padayottam is set to enter its second successful week of theatrical run. The movie starring Biju Menon in the lead is performing well in all the release centres in Kerala. Common audience have lapped up the movie unanimously. Critics have also rated it as a complete fun entertainer that could be enjoyed by audience of all age groups. The movie is directed by Rafeek Ibrahim and scripted by Arun AR and Ajai Rahul.

Director Jibu Jacob, known for his films like Munthirivallikal Thalirkkumbol (MVT) and Vellimoonga, has appreciated team Padayottam. In a note written on his social media handle, the director sounded pleased with how the Malayali audience accepted a movie like Padayottam, which is a first of its kind attempt in making a travel gangster-comedy. Jibu Jacob also praised director Rafeek Ibrahim for his unique treatment and producer Sophia Paul for standing firmly by the young team. It must be noted that Jibu Jacob’s last film MVT was also funded by the same banner, Weekend Blockbusters.

After its good run in Kerala, Padayottam is reaching centres in UAE and GCC today. The movie is releasing in a good number of scenes in areas like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Alain, Sharjah, Fujairah, Oman, Baharain, Kuwait and Qatar. The word of mouth has largely been positive and hence is expected to have a good opening weekend there.
