The makers of Tovino Thomas’ next film with director Lal Jr. recently unveiled the new title of the film. Previously titled Nadikar Thilakam, the name was objected to by fans of legendary Tamil actor Sivaji Ganesan, who was known by the same monicker. After relentless persuasion by the fans, the team changed the title of the film to Nadikar. The title release event was attended by noted actor Prabhu Ganesan, the son of Sivaji Ganesan.
The film is set to follow the psychological state of a superstar named David Padikkal after he experiences a fall from grace in both his personal and professional life.
Nadikar is directed by Lal Jr. and stars an ensemble cast of Tovino Thomas, Soubin Shahir, Bhavana, Dhyan Srinivasan, Anoop Menon, Shine Tom Chacko, Aju Varghese, Srinath Bhasi, Lal, Balu Varghese, Suresh Krishna, Indrans, Madhupal, Khalid Rahman, Ganapathy, and Sreejith Ravi, among others. It is backed by Allan Antony and Anoop Venugopal under the Godspeed production banner along with Y Naveen and Y Ravi Shankar under the Mythrie Movie Makers banner.
