Chennai, Jan 25 (NationPress) The production team behind the highly anticipated thriller 'Patriot', directed by Mahesh Narayanan and starring the two titans of Malayalam cinema, Mammootty and Mohanlal, unveiled the character poster of actress Nayanthara on Sunday. This revelation has brought immense joy to fans and cinema enthusiasts alike.
In a post shared via the film's official Instagram account, they introduced #Nayantara in #Patriot with a caption stating, 'Dissent is patriotic. In a world filled with traitors, be a Patriot!'
Notably, the poster contained a hint of morse code, which fans promptly decoded to reveal a potential release date of April 23rd.
Previously, sources had suggested that the film might premiere on April 23 this year, although no formal announcement has been made yet.
On January 4, the production team confirmed that filming had concluded, stating, 'That’s a wrap. Blood, sweat, belief. #PATRIOT marches on. See you on the Big screen.' They also shared a behind-the-scenes video featuring the cast on set.
With soaring expectations since its announcement, 'Patriot' also stars renowned actors Fahadh Faasil, Kunchacko Boban, Nayanthara, and Revathy, in addition to the leading superstars.
The teaser released last year heightened excitement among fans. It opens with a voiceover stating, 'I remember there was a time when this nation was controlled by the two of them. Together. Over these years, what they earned wasn't just followers. Faith. Trust.'
Subsequent scenes reveal Mammootty's voice declaring, 'They are going to bring social score to people.' Meanwhile, Mohanlal, who seems to portray an army general, asserts, 'There are three of us. Do you think you can stop us?'
The teaser hints at a program named Periscope, with Kunchacko Boban’s character called Daniel. Nayanthara inquires, 'This program, which is part of the student laptop scheme, is it similar to Periscope?' Another voice questions, 'Is this program watching them secretly?' The teaser culminates with Mammootty prompting, 'Great Indian traitor... or Patriot.'
Overall, the teaser paints a picture of a narrative centered around a group of socially conscious individuals aiming to thwart an unlawful initiative by the government to surveil its citizens.
