The teaser, dropped on Thursday, opens with a suspenseful knock on a door, followed by a local man's inquiry: "Neenga yaaru? (Who are you?)."

The scene then shifts to a police station, where Azees Nedumangad's character questions someone. His intense expressions suggest he is driven by deep hatred or revenge.

Mammootty enters later, casually standing outside a local shop with a cigar in his mouth and piercing gaze.
