Kadakan's theatrical release has been postponed, according to the film's makers, for undisclosed reasons. The action drama, which was earlier slated to release on February 23, will now release in theatres on March 1.
Dulquer Salmaan’s banner, Wayfarer Films, had announced that it would be distributing the film in theatres across the state. With a UA certificate, the movie was censored earlier this month. The main character in Kadakan is portrayed by Hakkim Shajahan, who is well-known for his performance in Pranaya Vilasam and the short film Freedom @ Midnight.
Other Malayalam releases that have been postponed
Apart from Kadakan, the release of Arun Bose’s romantic comedy drama Marivillin Gopurangal and Biju Menon and Asif Ali-starrer Thalavan have also been delayed. It was earlier reported to hit the big screen on February 16 and February 23, respectively.
All these films were supposed to run in theatres along with Mammootty’s much-awaited mystery horror Bramayugam, Soubin Shahir’s Manjummel Boys, and Biju Menon’s Thundu. Tovino Thomas’ Anweshippin Kandethum and Girish AD’s Premalu, which were released earlier this month, are also receiving rave reviews from the audience in theatres.
