Dhanush’s Vaathi Trailer Hints At A Fight For Social Cause!

Actor Dhanush was last seen on screens in the horror thriller drama Naane Varuvean which hit the theaters under the direction of story teller Selvaraghavan with actress Indhuja Ravichandran in the female lead role. The entertainer opened to negative reviews from the audience and critics alike. Now, the actor has put that behind him, and is gearing up for the release of his upcoming Tamil Telugu bilingual drama titled Vaathi. The Telugu version of the movie is christened as Sir. Actress Samyuktha Menon of Kalari fame has essayed the female lead role. Story teller Venky Atluri has penned and directed the drama. The entertainer which went on floors at the beginning of last year is now done and dusted ready for release. 

Now, the production house has shared the trailer of the flick along with its release date on social media. Vaathi is all slated to hit the theaters on 17th of February this year. Music director G. V. Prakash Kumar has shared the trailer. Taking to his official twitter account, the music director dropped trailer links to both Tamil and Telugu versions of the film, and wrote, “Here’s the trailer of Vaathi Sir.” Here is the post made by the musician.

Over two-minute trailer opens to a voiceover, “Who is he?” The response being, “My master, Bala sir” We then have actor Samuthirakani’s voiceover, “In our country education is a non-profitable service. On behalf of the private schools association, we will be running all the government schools in our area. We will be sending all of you as faculties there.” Following which we have hero introduction, subsequently, heroine introduction where a staff introduces Samyuktha Menon, “Ms. Meenakshi, biology teacher of our school.” The trailer takes us on a reminiscence ride of our school days with actor Dhanush’s character mouthing the rhyme, “Inky pinky ponky. Father had a donkey. Donkey’s died father cried inky pinky ponky.” Vaathi is set at the backdrop of 1980’s where actor Dhanush depicts the role of Balamurugan, a tutor who fights the education mafia pushing for complete privatization of the education system. Actor Samuthirakani is seen as a chic corporate businessman. The premise indeed seems interesting. The trailer has garnered attention of the audience, and has engineered high expectations on the project.

Sai Kumar, Shrutika, Tanikella Bharani, Samuthirakani, Thotapalli Madhu, Narra Srinivas, Pammi Sai, Hyper Aadi, Shara, Aadukalam Naren, Ilavarasu, Rajendran, Hareesh Peradi, and Praveena depicting various other supporting parts.
