Chennai, Aug 3
Ace director Karthik Subbaraj on Monday released the title and the first look poster of actor Krishna's 25th film, 'Murder in Town', much to the delight of fans and film buffs.
Taking to his X timeline, Karthik Subbaraj wrote, "Happy to unveil the First Look & Second Look of @Actor_Krishna's 25th Film #MurderInTow. Best wishes team. Written & Directed by @DirBalakrishnan.Produced by @manu_manthra #SriVishnuCreations
@Yathrapictures. Starring: @thebindumadhavi @Bala_actor @VaibhavMuruges1 #Pandiarajan #ChinniJayanth #IMVijayan #Saravanan #Gajaraj @krishdayal17 #Tharshika #Nynika."
Presented by Manu Manthra Creations and Sri Vishnu Creations, 'Murder in Town' has been written and is being directed by Balakrishnan. Sources say the director has crafted the film as an engrossing investigative crime thriller. While the title itself evokes intrigue, the first-look poster offers an equally compelling glimpse into a world where every clue matters, every decision has consequences, and every revelation leads to a deeper mystery.
In the first-look poster that was released, Krishna appears as Police Officer N. Athiyaman, carrying an intense yet contemplative expression that hints at the emotional burden of a challenging investigation.
Another image of the actor, dressed in civilian attire and walking through a
meticulously designed crime scene, too has been released.
Scattered evidence, a blood-stained file, an abandoned police cap, surveillance equipment, a devastating explosion and the rugged terrain spotted in this image create an atmosphere of mystery, suggesting that 'Murder in Town' will be far more than just a conventional whodunit thriller.
Bindu Madhavi plays the female lead in this film, which will also feature a number of gifted actors such as Bala Saravanan, Vaibhav Murugesan, R. Pandiarajan, Chinni Jayanth, Kalaimamani Saravanan, 'Padma Shri' I.M. Vijayan, Krishnadayal, Gajaraj, Tharshika and Baby Nynika .
The film, which is being produced by Mahendraraj Santhosh Kumar, Karunanithi Velappan and Suba Venkat of Manu Manthra Creations, Sri Vishnu Creations and Yathra Pictures, will have music by Ranjan and cinematography by T Gopal Krishna.
Sources say Kavin Adithya is overseeing the editing works of this film, which has art direction by Venkat Bala. Costumes for the film have been designed by Vinod Sundar and Swetha Raghul. 'Kodangi' Vadivel has penned the dialogues of this film.
Sources inform that the unit recently wrapped up the shooting of the film. They add that the unit has shot the film across Chennai and in the scenic locales of Kerala. The film is now under post-production.

The poster with the blood-stained file and abandoned police cap already gives me goosebumps. Finally a proper investigative thriller in Tamil cinema! Bindu Madhavi pairing with Krishna is a nice combo. Waiting for the trailer!
Good to see Krishna completing 25 films! The title 'Murder in Town' is catchy. I just hope the director doesn't mess up the pacing like many recent thrillers. The cast looks solid though. All the best to the team! 🙌
The second look poster walking through the crime scene is so atmospheric! Love the attention to detail - surveillance equipment, explosion, rugged terrain. This looks like it'll be a proper edge-of-the-seat thriller. Very excited for this one! 😍
Krishna has come a long way! 25 films is no small feat. The first look as Police Officer N. Athiyaman looks intense. Hoping the story lives up to the promising posters. Also great to see Vaibhav and Pandiarajan in the cast. Good luck team!
Such a relief to see quality content being planned. The title itself is intriguing and the posters don't reveal much which is great for a mystery. I just hope they release a good teaser soon. Being shot in Chennai and Kerala adds a nice touch. Eagerly waiting! ✨
