Trailer of Suhasini-Varalakshmi starrer The Verdict out

The makers of debut director Krishna Shankar's The Verdict dropped the film's trailer on Tuesday.

While the earlier released teaser depicted only the suspicion centred on the character played by Sruthi Hariharan, the over two-minute trailer glimpse introduces us to many more suspects and their intentions. The trailer promises that the film will be a riveting investigative thriller.

In an earlier conversation with CE, the debut director divulged about setting a courtroom drama in the US and how tricky it was to differentiate Indian and American legal systems to make it comprehensible for audiences here. “Except for the jury system, I don’t think there is much of a difference between court proceedings in India and the US. Also, things happening outside the court are common and relatable to the Indian audience,” he said, adding that the actors were so cooperative that he was able to complete the filming in 23 days as planned.

The film also stars Vidyulekha Raman and Prakash Mohan, who produced the film under his Agni Entertainment banner. Cinematographer Arvind Krishna, editor Sathish Surya and composer Aditya Rao form the technical crew of the upcoming film.

The Verdict is slated for a theatrical release on May 30.
