Title Revealed, Buzz Confirmed

Previously referred to as "MMMN" during production, the title Patriot was coincidentally leaked out by Sri Lanka Tourism and later authentic confirmed by Mohanlal. This marks the official beginning of the film's public journey.

Besides Mammootty and Mohanlal, Patriot comprises a well-formed supporting cast of Nayanthara, Fahadh Faasil, Kunchacko Boban, Darshana Rajendran, Revathi, Zarin Shihab, and Grace Antony, thereby suggesting a narrative depth and scale rarely attempted in Malayalam cinema.

Anticipation of This Reunion

True reunion: The viewers have been waiting for a decade to see both lead in a movie since Mohanlal's cameo in Kadal Kadannu Oru Maathukutty (2013) would be the first real reunion.

High expectations: "Big film in terms of the star cast", said Mohanlal in consonance with both scale and gravitas.

Mahesh Narayanan on spotlight: International stories like Take Off and Malik are his credit with gripping narratives, so in title-logically, it raises hopes for a political/drama thriller.
