Teaser of Jai-Gopi Nainar's Karuppar Nagaram is here

The makers of Jai and Aishwarya Rajesh's Karuppar Nagaram, directed by Gopi Nainar of Aramm fame, released the teaser of the film.

The 1.28-minute-long teaser features glimpses of people playing carrom, youth involved in violence and police engaging in brutality against the public. Jai seems to be playing a youth who is fighting for his rights and maybe even for his people. It looks like the film will also underline themes of oppression and the fight for equality.

Earlier, the first look poster of the film was unveiled which featured a bird's eye view of a soccer ground surrounded by houses on fire.

It may be noted that Gopi's supposed debut had the same title and starred Kalloori-fame Akhil and Arundhathi in the lead. The film was stalled mid-way and a case was filed against Pa Ranjith's Madras citing that the story had been lifted from Karuppar Nagaram. Years later, it has been revealed that the film has been revived with the same name.

Also starring JD Chakravarthy, Easwari Rao, Daniel Anne Pope and Deepa Shankar, the film has cinematography by NK Ekambaram, music by KS Prasad and editing by Gopi Krishna. The shooting of the film is complete and will hit theatres in February 2024.

The film is produced by R Ramesh's RrFilmmakers & Hemant Raj's AGL Productions.
