The trailer of Nivin Pauly-starrer Padavettu will be launched tomorrow with the Kerala Blasters football team at Jawaharlal Nehru International stadium, Kochi. Written and directed by Liju Krishna, the film is set to hit screens on October 21.

Padavettu is a political drama set in North Kerala. Earlier while speaking about the film, Nivin Pauly had said, "Padavettu is a story about hope, resurgence, and courage, and I'm sure the film will be received with a lot of love by the audience. This is a political drama, but it is also about the thread of humanity that connects us all. It also brings to the fore the triumph of the human spirit in the face of great oppression. The film may be set in North Kerala, but its theme has a universality that makes it relatable at multiple levels."

Padavettu, co-produced by Sunny Wayne and Yoodle Films, also stars Manju Warrier, Aditi Balan, Shine Tom Chacko, Shammi Thilakan, and Indrans in supporting roles. It has music by Govind Vasantha and cinematography by Deepak D Menon.
