Minnal Murali new trailer gives a glimpse of the villain!

Tovino Thomas’ highly-anticipated superhero flick ‘Minnal Murali’ is coming out on Netflix on December 24 as a Christmas special. With hardly a month left for release, the OTT giant is planning extensive promotions for the biggie. A new trailer, which they call a bonus one, has just been released.

The 1.09-minute long trailer gives a glimpse of the antagonist character played by Tamil actor Guru Somasundaram. So far, the makers have deliberately kept him away from all the promos to raise the curiosity. This is the first time, his character is being introduced but even then it’s an ambiguous one without a proper shot of his face. Nothing much about the character is still known.

Directed by Basil Joseph, ‘Minnal Murali’ also stars Baiju Santhosh, Mammukoya, Arya Salim, Bijukuttan, debutante Femina George and many others. Sushin Shyam and Shaan Rahman have composed the music. Cinematographer Sameer Thahir and Hollywood-based action choreographer Vlad Rimburg are part of the technical team.

Sophia Paul of Weekend Blockbusters is producing ‘Minnal Murali’.
