On the occasion of actor-politician Suresh Gopi's birthday, the teaser of Varaaham was unveiled by the makers. The film is directed by Sanal V Devan, known for previously helming Kunjamminis Hospital. Aided by a pulsating score, the teaser features an intense monologue from the lead actor about the intricacies of the traditional bull-taming festival Jallikattu. It focuses on the strategy of a bull to trick the man trying to keep it under control, hinting at the protagonist's plan of action in the film, which appears to be a revenge thriller.
