The teaser of the Malayalam film Pallichattambi, headlined by Tovino Thomas and directed by Dijo Jose Antony, was unveiled by the makers on Monday (March 23, 2026).

The teaser, set in the 1950s and 1960s, hints that the film might explore class struggles of that era. Penned by S Suresh Babu, it is slated to release in theatres on April 10.

The film also stars Kayadu Lohar, who debuted in Malayalam with Pathonpathaam Noottandu (2022), directed by Vinayan. She was also seen in the Oru Jaathi Jaathakam (2025) and Dragon (2025), headlined by Pradeep Ranganathan.

Pallichattambi is produced by Noufal-Brijeesh and CCC Brothers, under the banner of World Wide Films and C Qube Bros. It is Dijo’s fourth directorial venture. His last film, Malayalee from India (2024), failed to do well at the box office. He debuted in 2018 with the campus drama, Queen.

Tijo Tomy heads the film’s cinematography while Sreejith Sarang handles the editing. Rajesh Menon helms the art direction department.

Earlier, ‘Kaattuchembakam’, a romantic track from the film was released in February, composed by Jakes Bejoy and crooned by Vishal Mishra and Avani Malhar. It was trending on social media, garnering over 13 million views on YouTube.

Meanwhile, Tovino was last seen in Narivetta, released in May, 2025, directed by Anuraj Manohar.
