‘Thaai Kizhavi’ teaser out: Radhika Sarathkumar stuns in intense avatar, release date announced |
The first look, teaser, and release date of the film ‘Thaai Kizhavi’ have been released. The story begins with the character of an old woman, ‘Pavunuthayi’, whom everyone in the village looks at with a little fear. The woman’s gait, looks, and behavior make the villagers uncomfortable. The teaser gives a preview of comedy, drama, and some suspense. Specifically, the last scene with the villagers gathering around the woman, assuming she was dead, creates suspense about the main plot of the movie.
Radhika Sarathkumar ’s bold transformation steals the spotlight
In this film, actress Radhika Sarathkumar goes a step further than the mother roles she has played so far, playing the role of a completely elderly ‘mother-in-law’. Body language, voice change, vision, she has brought about a big change in everything. Radhika is a woman who is sharp in getting back the money she has borrowed, and at the same time, she is courageous and humorous. Fans who have seen the teaser praised it on social media, and this character is seen as an important milestone in Radhika’s acting journey.
Film’s genre sparks debate
Ever since the first look of ‘Thaai Kizhavi’ was released, there has been a debate about whether it is a typical family film or a social story with a dark comedy. For those expecting an emotional film because of the title, the teaser appears to have taken a different approach. Along with Radhika, Singampuli, Arul Das, Bala Saravanan, Munishkanth, Ilavarasu, George Marian, Muthukumar, Rachel Rebecca, and others have been crucial. Perhaps the actors’ performances too, would lend credibility to the story.
