The makers of Madraskaaran, the film that marks Malayalam actor Shane Nigam, announced details about the film's trailer and audio launch on Saturday.

Accordingly, the event will take place on January 6 at 6 PM in Chennai's Sathyam Cinemas.

Helmed by Vaali Mohan Das, who debuted with the coming-of-age drama Rangoli in 2023, Madraskaaran is set for a release on January 10.

Madraskaaran also stars Kalaiyarasan, Niharika Konidela, Aishwarya Dutta, Karunas, and Pandiarajan. The film will be Niharika's second Tamil project after Oru Nalla Naal Paathu Solren (2018). In an earlier interview with CE, writer-director Vaali said that the film revolves around the consequences of an ego clash between two people and that it centres on the idea of "how a negligible incident completely changes a person's life."

Madraskaaran is touted as an action thriller along the lines of Prithviraj Sukumaran's Ayyappanum Koshiyum and Driving Licence, as well as Shane's own Ishq. The film went on floors in February 2024 and wrapped shoot in June. It has cinematography by Prasanna S Kumar, editing by R Vasanthakumar, and music by Sam CS. The film is produced by B Jagadish through SR Productions.

Other Tamil films releasing for Pongal include Vanangaan, Kadhalikka Neramillai, Nesippaya, Madha Gaja Raja, Tharunam, and 2K Love Story. Shankar's Game Changer, starring Ram Charan in the lead, is also releasing for the festival.
