Alongside the two Malayalam titans, the film showcases talented actors Fahadh Faasil, Kunchacko Boban, Nayanthara, and Revathy, among others.
The teaser opens with a powerful voiceover stating, "I remember there was a time when this nation was controlled by the two of them. Together. Over these years, what they earned wasn't just followers. Faith. Trust."
We then view a series of captivating yet intense moments as Mammootty's voice resonates, "They are going to bring social score to people." Following this, Mohanlal, seemingly portraying an army general, asserts, "There are three of us. Do you think you can stop us?"
The teaser hints at a program named Periscope, with Kunchacko Boban playing a character named Daniel. Nayanthara questions, "This program, part of the student laptop scheme, is it similar to Periscope?" Another voice interjects, asking, "Is this program watching them secretly?" The teaser concludes with Mammootty prompting someone to finish the phrase, "Great Indian traitor... or Patriot."
Overall, the teaser suggests that the film centers on a group of socially conscious individuals trying to avert an unlawful attempt by the government to surveil its citizens.
