The makers of Lal Salaam released the film's trailer on Monday. Helmed by Aishwarya Rajinikanth, the film stars Vishnu Vishal and Vikranth in lead roles. Rajinikanth is set to be seen in an extended cameo in the film. 

Vikranth and Vishnu Vishal, who belong to different religions, are both cricket players. While Rajinikanth's Moideen Bhai, wishes to promote his son Vikranth's talent in cricket, Vishnu Vishal's Thirunavukkarasu seems to be having his own anger issues. Meanwhile, their city is infested with religious instability wreaking havoc between communities. 

Lal Salaam marks Rajinikanth's first collaboration with Aishwarya, and the latter's first collaboration with AR Rahman, who is the film's music composer. The film also stars Senthil, Jeevitha, Thambi Ramaiah, Ananthika Sanilkumar, Vivek Prasanna, Thangadurai, and KS Ravikumar among others. 

With cinematography by Vishnu Rangasamy, the film has editing by Pravin Baaskar. Lal Salaam is gearing up for release on February 9.
