The character-driven narrative is a perfect blend of action, humour and heart. Commenting on the development, Balaji Mohan shares, “This film needed a unique vision for its treatment with the protagonist being an original, one-of-a-kind character. An amalgamation of something deep, dark & edgy being wrapped with humour to keep the audience guessing and at the edge of their seats till the end.” Iravin Nizhal Teaser: Radhakrishnan Parthiban Gives A Glimpse Of ‘The World’s First Non-Linear Single-Shot Feature Film’ (Watch Video).
