Puli Trailer Review

With unparalled fan frenzy and grave anticipation, the trailer of Puli was unveiled last night. The trailer clocked 2.25 lakh views in just 1 hour of release without too many celebrity endorsements and riding solely on the massive fan base of Ilayathalapathy Vijay. As of now (9.30 AM), the trailer has racked up around 3.5 lakh hits in YouTube.

The trailer has a good concoction of everything to satiate the hunger of fans who were waiting for this magnum-opus since a long time. The gigantic sets resembling a palace, especially the opening aerial shot, the daring fight sequences, the ventorous spirit of Vijay in taking on a panther, the cute romance portions with Shruti Haasan featuring a kissing spree on Vijay’s cheeks in a song, the searing attitude of Sudeep, the princely-looking Hansika Motwani who grooves gracefully, and the arrogant queen Sridevi Boney Kapoor in attractive costumes are the highlights of this 113 seconds long trailer.

The CG-heavy trailer had close to 56 CG shots spearheaded by the national award-winning RC Kamalakannan with good support from six-time national award winning editor Sreekar Prasad. The trailer is beautifully presented exposing the gist of the story to the viewers.

In a land ruled by darkness. There is only one ray of hope” – This hints at the basic premise of the plot and what to expect from the film, if not anything more.

The trailer offers a wholesome experience. From the outset, the film looks like a fusion of fantasy, action, thriller and lots of comedy. We also get to see comedians like Robo Shankar and Vidyu Raman among others as dwarfs in a blink and miss shot.

Another attention-getting, curiosity-inducing shot is packed at the fag end of the trailer when Vijay wears his hair loose, rides on a horse amidst raging fire in the background like a valiant warrior. We guess if this specific make-over has got something to do with Nandita Swetha, who plays a brief role but is not featured in the trailer.

However, the spotlight was grabbed by Vijay when the trailer ends on a high with his punchline, the crowd’s favorite: பாசத்துக்கு முன்னாடி தான் நா பனி.. பகைக்கு முன்னாடி நா புலி.

With a number of genres infused in this grandeur, keep your fingers crossed and hope that Chimbudevan has not bitten off more than he could chew.
