Excitement has been building among fans ever since the teaser's release.
The teaser opens with a door being knocked. A Tamil man answers and asks, "Who are you?" A police officer then asks another officer, whose identity remains concealed, "Are you the one who's Nath?" The visuals showcase both lead actors—Vinayakan, appearing as a police officer with a serious demeanor, and Mammootty, whose character seems calm and observant.
