Padmini is a 2023 Indian movie directed by Senna Hegde starring Kunchacko Boban, Aparna Balamurali, Madonna Sebastian and Vincy Aloshious. The feature film is produced by Suvin K Varkey and Prasobh Krishna and the music composed by Jakes Bejoy.

Padmini appears to be a straightforward and predictable film.It manages to stand out with its setting, style, acting, and, most notably, its massive number of setups and payoffs. Senna Hegde clearly had a definite vision in his brain about how the plot would unfold, and his finished result virtually sings. He has a well-written script and, with the help of some talented performers, he has a fantastic film on his hands. Of course, there are some minor flaws, but the premise and story make Padmini a worthwhile watch.

The music and photography are both excellent. However, Senna Hegde’s direction is even better. The writer and director had a clear vision for the film from the beginning, and he did an excellent job of incorporating it onscreen. A special mention should also be made to the editing section.

While there are several well-known actors in the picture, they are all excellent. This film relies on nuanced performances from nearly every performer on screen, and they all deliver for their director. The film is told from the perspectives of various characters, including Kunchacko Boban, Aparna, Madona, Sajin Cherukayil, Anand Manmadhan, and Ganapathy, among others, with some excellent cameo appearances.

probably the worst part of this film is climax. The entire movie is entertaining but head to climax get a little boring. and struggle with lacks of clarity. Madona’s character needs better treatment and proper space in the script. But eventually, the plot and the acting wins out .

Bottomline

Too many funny moments and Funny characters, crisp 2 hour running time and climax was a let down.

3.25/5
