Karnan Teaser: Dhanush as protector of the opressed

After basking the prestigious national award Dhanush's upcoming movie Karnan's teaser is out. The 2-minute long teaser packs a powerful punch as it sets the tone of the film without revealing too much. You don’t see a drop of blood in the video but you can sense the magnitude of violence that has already been perpetrated in your gut.

The teaser starts with a village getting pressed and at last, a saviour i.e Dhanush enters into the frame riding a horse wielding a battle sword.

Karnan is the second directional venture of Mari Selvaraj, who made his debut with Pariyerum Perumal in 2018.

Karnan will be Dhanush’s first theatrical release since Pattas, which came out in January 2020. In fact, everybody had hoped that his long-awaited film Jagame Thandhiram will release after theatres were re-opened following the lockdown. But, the film’s producer S. Sashikanth of Y Not Studios has surprised everyone by deciding to release Jagame Thandhiram directly on Netflix.

Produced by Kalaipuli S Thanu, the film also stars Rajisha Vijaya, Lakshmipriya Chandramouli, Gouri Kishen, Lal, and Yogi Babu in the supporting cast. It is due in cinemas on April 9.
