Earlier this Saturday, the makers of writer-director Harish Durairaj's Con City dropped the first full trailer for the film, starring Arjun Das and Anna Ben, among others. The trailer offers a glimpse of the story, without giving away any spoilers. In the recently released teaser for the film, the characters chance upon a machine that prints out currency notes. In the trailer, it appears that they are using the money to produce a film. There is also the element of a boy in a wheelchair, and the other characters seeking money to help him. Meanwhile, Arjun Das leads a motley crew, including Yogi Babu, Anna Ben, and Vadivukkarasi's characters, on a con mission for money.
At one point, Arjun's character imitates VTV Ganesh's style of speaking, hinting at a film with a focus on humour as well.
The film marks the first collaboration between Arjun Das and Anna Ben, who recently earned much appreciation for her performance in PS Vinothraj's Kottukkaali.
Con City also stars Akhilan, Nanda Gopal, Sakshi Vaidya, Dheepa Ramanujam, Arul Doss, Radha Ravi, Shaji Chen, Ramesh Thilak, Thambi Ramaiah, Imman Annachi, Baradwaj Rangan, Madan Dakshinamoorthy, Ragu Esaki, Ponvannan, and Sathanand, among others. Additional screenwriters for the film comprise Harihara Tamilselvan, Ubasakan, Sudhir Muthu, and Gokul Sugumaran.
On the technical front, the film has composer Sean Roldan, cinematographer Aravind Viswanathan, editor Arul Moses A, and production designer Raj.
The film is backed by Power House Pictures in association with Maali and Manvi Movie Makers, Klout Studios and Silver Tree Studios. Production on the film has been wrapped, and it is set for a June 26 release in theatres.
Arjun Das' upcoming films also include Once More with Aditi Shankar and Sona Olickal, Thudarum director Tharun Moorthy's Malayalam film Torpedo, and another Malayalam film with director Ahammed Khabeer.
