Vetri, who was last seen in Pagalariyaan on the big screen, is working on his next titled Aalan. The makers have now released the teaser of the film.

The nearly one-minute-long teaser opens with Vetri heading to the city of Kasi to possibly explore his spiritual side. He also meets a woman played by Madhura who is in love with him. Meanwhile, we also see Karunakaran along with a few officers investigating a case and questioning Vetri about the same. While the teaser doesn't reveal a lot of details, we understand that Vetri is conflicted between spirituality and love while also holding his dreams to be a writer.

Aalan is written and directed by Siva R. In an earlier conversation with CE, the director said, "Aalan will be a love story told through the lens of spirituality and literature. Of late we have been seeing a lot of violence onscreen in Tamil cinema and amid this, we wanted to tell a love story. The film will show the life of a boy since he was 15 to the age of 40. As he aspires to be a writer, a path suddenly pushes him into spirituality. Does love change him or not is the story.” The director has previously helmed Karotiyin Kadhali.

Aalan will also feature German-origin actor Madhura. The supporting cast of the film includes Aruvi Madhankumar, Anusithara, Lal, Vivek Prasanna, and Karunakaran among others. The film has been shot in locations like Rishikesh, Kasi, Kodaikanal, Puducherry, and Chennai.

Aalan has cinematography by Vindhan Stalin, music by Manoj Krishna and editing by Mu Kasi Viswanathan. Siva R is producing the film under 3S Pictures. A release date for the film is yet to be announced.
