Vijay Sethupathi releases fun-filled trailer of Priya Bhavani Shankar's 'Hot Spot 2'

Vijay Sethupathi releases the fun-filled trailer for 'Hot Spot 2,' a satire on modern society featuring Priya Bhavani Shankar and Ashwin Kumar.

"Sorry machan, I tend to doze off if I don't like the story. - Drunk friend character"

Chennai, Jan 6

Actor Vijay Sethupathi on Tuesday released the fun-filled trailer of director Vignesh Karthick's upcoming entertainer 'Hotspot 2', much to the delight of fans and film buffs.

Actor Vijay Sethupathi, who took to his social media timelines to release the trailer of the film, which takes potshots at everything in today's day and age, wrote, "Here is the trailer of #Hotspot2much. Best wishes to the entire team @KJB_Talkies @KJB_iamBala @a2e_cinemasco @aneelkreddy @VVStudioz @vikikarthick88 @priya_Bshankar @i_amak @AadhityaBaaskar @RakshanVJ @Brigidasagaoffl @BhavaniSre @Sanjana_tiwarii #ThambiRamaiah #MsBhaskar @EditorMuthayan @DuraiKv @digitallypower @Pro_Velu."

The just released trailer shows that the second instalment in the Hotspot franchise will be on the same lines as the earlier part.

It begins with a mother asking her teenaged daughter about the caste of the family her boyfriend belongs to. "They are our people. Can't you tell just by looking at them," the modern daughter retorts. "How can you say that just by looking at them," the mother asks a little confused. The daughter responds, saying, "They didn't have tails. That means they belong to our species right."

The trailer then shows actor Ashwin Kumar confronting a drunk friend who has dozed off. "How dare you sleep when I am talking about something so important," he fumes. In reply, the drunk friend, waking up from deep sleep, replies, "Sorry machan, I tend to doze off if I don't like the story." The sequence reminds one of a controversy in which actor Ashwin Kumar was involved a few years ago. The trailer also shows that Rakshan and Aadhitya Baaskar play two die-hard fans of film stars. It is unclear as to what role Priya Bhavani Shankar plays in the film although there is one scene that shows her describing a situation where an old hero is cast with a young heroine. That apart, the film has empowered women characters, who express interest in having a DINK (Double Income No Kids) family and cuffing relationships.

The film, which has been directed by Vignesh Karthick, features actors Priya Bhavani Shankar, Thambi Ramaiah, Rakshan, Ashwin Kumar and Aadhitya Baaskar in the lead. Apart from these five actors, the film also features M S Baaskar, Bhavani sre , Brigida Saga and Sanjana tiwari in pivotal roles.

Interestingly, the film is being presented by actor Vishnu Vishal's production house, Vishnu Vishal Studioz.

On the technical front, the film has cinematography by two camerman -- Jagadeesh Ravi and Joseph Paul. Music for the film has been scored by Satish Raghunathan while editing for the film is by Muthayan U. Art direction for the film has been handled by C Shanmugam. The film has been co-directed by Kishore Sankar.

Good to see Tamil cinema tackling modern themes like DINK families and cuffing relationships. It's a reflection of changing urban India. The cast looks solid, especially Priya Bhavani Shankar. Hope the movie delivers more than just jokes and has some substance.

The Ashwin Kumar scene referencing his old controversy is pure gold! 🤣 Vignesh Karthick knows how to blend real-life gossip with comedy. The first part was fun, expecting this to be even better. Thambi Ramaiah and MS Bhaskar guarantee the laughs.

Interesting to see a mainstream Indian film openly discussing topics like double income no kids. It's a conversation many couples are having privately. The trailer seems smart and self-aware. Looking forward to seeing how they handle these themes with humor.

Respectfully, I hope the film doesn't just make fun of everything for the sake of it. Satire is great, but it should have a point. The first Hot Spot was enjoyable, but sometimes these "take potshots at everything" plots can feel scattered. Fingers crossed for a tight script.

Yaaro, this looks like a perfect weekend timepass movie! The fanboy characters played by Rakshan and Aadhitya Baaskar will be relatable to so many of us. 😄 Good to see Vishnu Vishal's studio presenting it too. The technical team looks promising.
