‘Maargan' trailer: Vijay Antony investigates a ‘devil' in this unique investigative thriller
The trailer begins to show Vijay Antony as Dhruv, a senior ADGP from Mumbai, who comes to Chennai following the trail of a serial killer with a shocking modus operandi — he injects his victims with a drug that chars their bodies. In an expected turn of events, we see even Dhruv getting injected by the mysterious drug, leaving one half of his body completely charred.
At one point, Dhruv and his team zero in on a suspect named Tamilarivu (Ajay Dishan), who is put in solitary confinement 'to bring out the devil in him.' As Tamilarivu struggles to maintain his sanity within those walls, the final moments of the trailer hint that perhaps calling him a devil wasn't just a figure of speech.
Maargan, previously titled Gagana Maargan, features an ensemble cast including Samuthirakani, Brigida Saga, Mahanathi Shankar, Prithika, Vinodh Sagar, Deepshikha, Kalakka Povadhu Yaaru Archana, Kanimozhi, and Anthagaram Natarajan.
Leo John Paul, an award-winning editor known for films like Soodhu Kavvum, Attakathi, Kadhalum Kadandhu Pogum and Indru Netru Naalai, leads a technical team featuring Yuva S as cinematographer and Raja A as art director. John Paul also edits the film, while Vijay Antony has composed the music for the film.
Meera Vijay Antony produces Maargan under the banner of Vijay Antony Films Corporation.
