Chennai, Oct 2
The makers of director Jayan Nambiar's eagerly awaited action entertainer 'Vilaayath Buddha' on Thursday released an entertaining teaser of the film that shows the actor playing a character called 'Double Mohan' in the film.
Taking to his social media timelines, actor Prithviraj shared the link to the teaser of the film. He wrote, "Happy Vijayadashami" and shared the links to the teaser of the film in different languages.
The teaser released begins with two cops discussing about "Double", whose real name is Mohan. One cop informs that Double is the main agent when it comes to smuggling sandalwood and that it is only through him that much of the business that happens there takes place. In fact, he gives him the moniker "Kutty Veerappan" (Little Veerappan).
The teaser then shows Mohan (Prithviraj) to be a cheeky and courageous character, who doesn't mind taking on cops. When a cop confronts him and tells him, "Who do you think you are? Pushpa?," Double Mohan mocks him saying, "Oh, he is international. I am just local." The teaser also shows that there is a romantic side to Mohan and that Mohan's sweetheart backs him whole-heartedly. The teaser ends with those more powerful than Mohan pointing out to him that he hasn't grown to the extent they have and Mohan confidently pointing out that he has weathered enough storms to be taken seriously enough.
Produced by Sandip Senan and A V Anoop, the film, which has been written by G R Indugopan and Rajesh Pinnadan, has triggered huge interest among fans and film buffs.
On the technical front, the film has cinematography by Arvind S Kashyap and Renadive. Music for the film is by the well known Jakes Bejoy while editing is by Sreejith Sarang. Jithu Sebastian has contributed as the Art director for the film, which has stunts choreographed by Rajasekhar, Kalai Kingson, Supreme Sundar and Mahesh Mathew.

Another smuggling story? Feels like we've seen this before with Veerappan and Pushpa. Hope the execution is fresh and not just riding the trend wave. Prithviraj deserves better scripts.
The technical team looks solid! Jakes Bejoy's music combined with Prithviraj's intensity - this could be a blockbuster. Sandalwood smuggling is an interesting backdrop we haven't explored much in mainstream cinema.
Released on Vijayadashami - perfect timing! The character's confidence against powerful people resonates with the festival's message of good over evil. Hoping for a strong storyline beyond just action sequences.
As someone who loves Indian cinema, this looks promising! The "Kutty Veerappan" nickname is clever marketing. Prithviraj's transformation for this role seems impressive - from historical dramas to this mass entertainer!
The romantic angle mentioned gives me hope it won't be just another mindless action film. Indian audiences love that emotional connect. Hope the girlfriend character has substance and isn't just for songs.
