Chennai, Jan 27 (NationPress) The team behind director Kishore Belekar's much-anticipated silent film 'Gandhi Talks', featuring prominent actors Vijay Sethupathi, Arvind Swamy, and Aditi Rao Hydari, has unveiled an intriguing trailer that has thrilled fans and cinema enthusiasts alike.
For those who may not know, this film is set to grace theaters on January 30 of this year.
Actor Vijay Sethupathi took to his X account to share the trailer link, stating, "Not every story requires words. Some tales are meant to resonate with the heart. This time, the screen remains silent, compelling you to truly listen. #GandhiTalks TRAILER OUT NOW. Releasing in cinemas globally on January 30. An @arrahman musical."
The trailer hints at the narrative focusing on two men - Vijay Sethupathi, who has an elderly mother to support and hails from a humble background, and Arvind Swamy, a wealthy construction mogul. It also depicts the growing affection between Vijay Sethupathi and Aditi Rao Hydari, who play neighbors, with the latter urging for a quick marriage.
Moreover, the trailer reveals that both characters face significant life challenges, leading to drastic behavioral changes. A striking image shows Arvind Swamy wielding a gun, while Vijay Sethupathi clutches a small gift inscribed with the words "Save me"...
This film has sparked substantial interest among audiences, particularly because it is a silent feature. In an earlier interview, director Kishore Belekar explained the film's concept, saying, "Gandhi Talks is about embracing silence. As Indian cinema enters its second century of storytelling, we aimed to return to its most fundamental essence - pure performance and emotion."
He added, "The cast embraced their vulnerability, and A.R. Rahman’s music became the film's voice. With support from Zee Studios and Meera Chopra, we were able to create a bold and sincere cinematic experience."
The film is described as a black comedy that delves into the disparity between Gandhi's image on currency and his ideals, highlighting a young man's financial struggles and his encounters with a thief.
