Watch: Irul trailer is all about mystery!

Fahadh Faasil’s new film ‘Irul’ is gearing up for a direct release in Netflix. Its trailer has just been shared online. The film directed by debutant Naseef Yusuf Izuddin is centered mainly around three characters, played by Fahadh, Soubin Shahir and Darshana Rajendran. From the trailer, we presume that the whole film is set in a posh mansion where the three characters come together. The trailer is highly intriguing as it is full of suspense and mystery.

The plot details given by Netflix goes like this,

A dark rainy night, an empty house, a stranded couple and an unknown man. A sleek game of the cat and the mouse starts playing on, as the three of them find a dead body in the basement. The movie takes the shape of an old-fashioned whodunit — the kind with mystery, suspense and a house which feels like a mousetrap. Leaving us questioning, who is the killer?

‘Irul’ is jointly produced by Anto Joseph Film Company and Plan J Studios, headed by Jomon T John and Shameer Muhammed. Jomon has cranked the camera and edits are done by Shammer. The film is set to premiere on April 2.

Vijay to reunite with Lokesh Kanagaraj for Thalapathy 66; Mersal makers Thenandal Films to produce the film!

After the smashing success of ‘Master’, there have been various speculations about Vijay and director Lokesh Kanagaraj teaming up once again. The news seems to be true as it is being widely reported that Vijay has given his nod. Apparently, Thenandal Films, the banner that produced the star’s 2018-blockbuster ‘Mersal’, will be producing this film (Thalapathy 66).

Since ‘Mersal’ was made on a huge budget, the makers could not gain big profit out of that film. So Vijay had promised to do another project with the banner. And since Lokesh is known for doing films within a reasonable budget, Vijay felt that he will be the right choice for the project. More details are expected to be out soon.

Vijay meanwhile will soon start shooting for his next film, Thalapathy 65. Nelson Dilipkumar of ‘Kolamavu Kokila’ fame is directing the film. Pre-production works are currently in the final stages as the makers are planning to start shoot in April. Sun Pictures is producing the film, which is being planned as a pan-Indian project.
