Fahadh Faasil has revealed that he will portray the antagonist in Mahesh Narayanan's film Patriot, which also stars Malayalam cinema icons Mohanlal and Mammootty. The film is set for release on April 23.
Actor Fahadh Faasil revealed that he will play a negative character in the upcoming Malayalam thriller, Patriot, joining Mohanlal and Mammootty in the cast. The news, shared during a recent event, has heightened interest in the film, which is directed by Mahesh Narayanan and scheduled for a worldwide release on April 23 this year.
Faasil made the announcement publicly, saying, "I play the villain in Patriot," and further confirmed that there would be a sequel to his popular film Aavesham. "Aavesham 2 is there. Hopefully, (in) 2027 or 2028," he said.

The filmmakers have confirmed that Mohanlal has finished dubbing for his role in Patriot. Posting a video on the film’s official Instagram, the team wrote, "Some voices do not just speak, they define moments. Mohanlal has completed dubbing for Patriot. In Cinemas Worldwide from April 23."
In January, the makers announced the completion of shooting with the social media post: "That’s a wrap. Blood, sweat, belief. #PATRIOT marches on. See you on the Big screen." Behind-the-scenes footage featuring the cast was also released.
Expectations around Patriot have been high since its announcement, with the cast also including Kunchacko Boban, Nayanthara, and Revathy. The teaser, released last year, offered a glimpse into the film’s intense narrative and generated considerable attention.
The teaser opens with the line, "I remember there was a time when this nation was controlled by the two of them. Together. Over these years, what they earned wasn't just followers. Faith. Trust." It presents tense scenes, hinting at the scale and complexity of the plot.
Here's the teaser:
In the teaser, Mammootty is heard saying, "They are going to bring social score to people." Mohanlal’s character, portrayed as an army general, adds, "There are three of us. Do you think you can stop us?" Nayanthara raises questions about a surveillance programme, asking, "This program which is part of the student laptop scheme. Is that similar to Periscope?"
The preview further explores suspicions about the programme, with the line, "Is this program watching them secretly?" and culminates with Mammootty’s challenge, "Great Indian traitor... or Patriot."
Patriot is one of the most anticipated films of 2023.
