The story of David Padikkal

Earlier, Nadikar’s teaser gave glimpses into the life of an obsessed Superstar named David Padikkal. The story revolves around the lives of people associated with cinema.

The Malayalam film was in the news a few months ago as its original title — Nadikar Thilakam — drew the ire of the fans of yesteryear Tamil superstar Sivaji Ganeshan.

Sivaji Ganeshan was fondly referred to as “Nadikar Thilakam” by his fans for his exceptional acting skills.

Upon the request of Prabhu, the son of Shivaji Ganeshan, the makers changed the film’s title to Nadikar.

The makers also released the first single, which showcased David Padikkal’s childhood days. The emotional tune also offered a glimpse into the emotional backstory of the protagonist.
