For a film directed by Nithin Renji Panicker and featuring two heavyweights associated with the best of Malayalam action cinema, the trailer of Kaaval is surprisingly driven more by emotion than thrills, a much welcome move.

The trailer gives one the impression that the characters of Suresh Gopi and Renji Panicker are close friends whose lives are one day turned upside down by a debilitating setback.

Kaaval is touted as a story spanning two generations. The female lead is played by Zaya David who made her acting debut in Irupathiyonnam Noottaandu. The supporting cast features Muthumani, Kichu Tellus, and Kannan Rajan P Dev.

Joby George’s Goodwill Entertainments is backing the film which has been photographed by National award-winning cinematographer Nikhil S Praveen, edited by Mansoor Muthootti, and scored by Ranjin Raj.
