Thottappan will have Vinayakan’s career best performance: Director Shanavas

As we had reported earlier, ‘Kismath’ director Shanavas K Bavakutty’s next has Vinayakan in the lead. The movie titled as ‘Thottappan’ is based on the book of the same name by Francis Noronha. First look poster of the movie was released last day in social medias. The movie marks Vinayakan’s debut as a lead actor and he plays a girl child’s godfather (thalathottappan).

After his phenomenal performance in Rajeev Ravi’s ‘Kammattipadam’, for which he also won the State Award, Vinayakan has been very selective with his projects. ‘Thottappan’ looks very promising and director Shanavas firmly believes that Vinayakan has put up his best performance so far. The movie explores the relationship of a godfather and his goddaughter.

PS Rafeeque has written the movie’s screenplay based on Francis Noronha’s story. Along with Vinayakan, the movie also has newcomer Priyamvada, Lal, Roshan Mathew, Manoj K Jayan, Dileesh Pothan, Reghunath Paleri, Kochu Preman and Pauly Valsan as part of the cast.

In the technical crew, Suresh Rajan is handling the camera and Jithin Manohar is in charge of the edits. Leela L Girikkuttan is composing the songs and Justin Varghese is handling the background score. Devadas Kadanjeri and Shailaja Manikandan are producing the movie under the banner of Pattam Cinema Company.
