Nana Patekar’s Film ‘The Confession’ to Release This December – Find Out Why It Was Delayed
according to the http://www.pinkvilla.com
Veteran actor Nana Patekar is all set to return to the big screen with his upcoming film ‘The Confession’, which is finally slated for release in December 2025, nearly two years after its completion. Directed by Ananth Narayan Mahadevan, the film was wrapped up in 2022, but due to multiple issues, its release was repeatedly postponed. The makers have now officially confirmed the new release timeline.
‘The Confession’ – The Truth Behind a Mysterious Murder
‘The Confession’ is a social thriller and murder mystery based on the real-life Madatharuvi case of 1966 in Kerala. Nana Patekar plays the lead role of Father Benedict Onamkulam, a Christian priest accused of murder.
The central conflict of the story lies in the priest’s moral dilemma – having heard a private confession, he is bound by religious law to maintain confidentiality. As a result, he refuses to disclose the truth in court, which creates a powerful moral and legal conflict that drives the narrative.
Why Was the Film Delayed?
Although the film was completed in 2022, its release was put on hold. According to director Ananth Mahadevan, the delay was linked to Nana Patekar’s involvement in the #MeToo controversy. Actress Tanushree Dutta had made serious allegations of sexual harassment against him, which negatively impacted his public image. To avoid affecting the film’s reception, the release was postponed.
Powerful Cast and Impactful Performances
‘The Confession’ features a stellar cast, including Nana Patekar, Ashish Vidyarthi, Neha Mahajan, and Adil Hussain. Director Ananth Mahadevan, known for his thought-provoking cinema, brings his signature style to this gripping courtroom drama. Nana Patekar is expected to deliver yet another intense and compelling performance.
