New Delhi : Vijay Sethupathi’s much-anticipated 50th film, “Maharaja,” unveiled its trailer on Thursday evening, sparking a wave of online buzz. The trailer kicks off with Sethupathi’s character, identified as Maharaja, making a peculiar visit to a police station. Asserting his identity, he informs the officers, “Sir, My name is Maharaja. I run a salon. Lakshmi got stolen from my house. Came to file an FIR.” However, amidst his narrative of a burglary at his home, Sethupathi’s character leaves a puzzling gap by not specifying what exactly was stolen. Despite inquiries about missing items like gold, money, documents, or even a person, he remains evasive. This enigmatic setup leaves authorities suspicious, convinced that Maharaja harbors a hidden agenda.
The trailer concludes with a tantalizing glimpse of Anurag Kashyap, portraying what seems to be Maharaja’s adversary. Will Maharaja unravel the mystery of his missing possession? Audiences will have to await the film’s release to uncover the truth.
Prior to the trailer debut, Vijay Sethupathi teased fans with a poster from the film on social media, signaling the imminent arrival of the captivating world of “Maharaja.” Written and directed by Nithilan Saminathan, the film promises an intriguing narrative waiting to unfold.
