Check out the Kottukkaali trailer here:
The trailer of Kottukkaali starts off with Soori and two of his friends being stopped by the police for riding together on a two-wheeler. It is soon revealed that they along with their family are traveling to see an exorcist as a spirit possesses his sister.
Then we catch a glimpse of Anna Ben sitting quietly in an auto-rickshaw, her expression blank and lost in thought. Following this, a series of chaotic events unfold as attempts are made to exorcise her, creating a whirlwind of turmoil around them.
The trailer becomes even more intriguing with the connection drawn between Anna Ben’s character and a rooster weighed down by a stone, symbolizing their shared sense of entrapment. Additionally, the use of rooster sounds throughout the trailer enhances the unfolding events.
Every crow of the rooster seems to speed up time, filling us with a sense of urgency about the outcome of events. In the film Kottukkaali, Anna plays Meena, a young woman deeply in love with a man from a lower caste.
Nevertheless, her family views this love as a spirit that has taken hold of her, and they wish to perform an exorcism to drive it away. In the film, Soori portrays her older brother Paandi, while actor Jawahar Sakthi also delivers a notable performance.
Coming to Soori’s work front, the actor was last seen playing the lead role in the movie Garudan, directed by Durai Senthilkumar. The action movie was based on a root story by Vetrimaaran and featured and also had actors like M Sasikumar and Unni Mukundan as co-leads. The actor is next set to be seen in the sequel movie Viduthalai Part 2.
