Annaatthe trailer: Rajinikanth’s new film promises to be a proper festive entertainer

The trailer of Rajinikanth’s ‘Annaatthe’ has been released. The 2.41-minute long trailer gives an overall idea about what to expect from the film. Rajinikanth plays a character named Kalaiyyan, who is the president of the neighbouring villages. He heads a large joint family that includes the likes of Khsubhu, Meena, Pandiarajan, Livingston, Sathish, Soori, Kulapulli Leela and many others.

Keerthy Suresh plays Rajinikanth’s sister in the film and Nayanthara is paired opposite him. It is the heartwarming brother-sister bonding between Rajinikanth and Keerthy that forms the film’s crux. Things take a turn after she gets married. Prakash Raj, Jagapathi Babu and Abhimanyu Singh play the baddies. While the first half of the film seems to be placed in a rural setting, the action shifts to Kolkata in the second half.

From the trailer, it is clear that ‘Annaatthe’ is very much on the lines of director Siva’s last film ‘Viswasam’. With such a huge star cast and all the commercial elements, ‘Annaatthe’ is most likely to emerge as a big success during this festive period. The film is scheduled to have a grand Deepavali release on November 4, 2021.
