Much is expected from Mohanlal's Vadakkomnathan which is expected to hit the theatres soon.

Unlike his earlier movies in the recent past, Vadakkomnathan is a family tale with no flexing of muscles or mass song in it. It is a movie on brother-sister sentiments.

Mohanlal plays a professor in a Sanskrit college in the college who loves his sister, played by Kavya Madhavan, very much.

Padmapriya, the happening name in Tamil film industry now, is playing Mohanlal's ladylove in this film.

The highlight of the movie would be the songs composed by Raveendran. All the songs in the film have come out very well.

Will Vadakkomnathan help Mohanlal sustain the huge success of Naran remains to be seen.

He is hopeful that this family sentiment film will work with the masses.
