Thudarum trailer: Offering double the joy for Mohanlal fans — who are already on cloud nine due to the impending release of actor Prithviraj Sukumaran’s third directorial venture L2: Empuraan — the trailer of the Malayalam superstar’s much-anticipated Thudarum has arrived. Unlike many of Mohanlal’s recent films, which primarily served as star vehicles, the Tharun Moorthy directorial appears to be a grounded drama that aims to tug at the heartstrings of viewers.
The 117-second trailer opens with Mohanlal’s character Shanmugham in conversation with a friend. As he reminisces — albeit with a hint of sadness — about his school days, recalling how their Mathematics teacher would show up unannounced during free periods to assign difficult problems, his friend (Maniyanpilla Raju) retorts, “As if you’ve ever stepped inside a school,” instantly setting the film’s lighthearted tone. The trailer then shifts focus to the joyful facets of Shanmugham’s life, particularly his affectionate bond with his wife (Shobana).
