Actor director Dhanush on Friday launched the gripping trailer of director Suresh Rajakumari's 'Sirai', featuring actors Vikram Prabhu and L K Akshay Kumar in the lead. The film has been produced by well known producer S S Lalit Kumar's Seven Screen Studios.
Taking to its timeline on X to share the link to the trailer, Seven Screen Studios wrote, "#Sirai Trailer out now ! A powerful milestone, marking @iamvikramprabhu’s25th film. Starring #VikramPrabhu @lk_akshaykumar @iamanishma @t_ananda98. Worldwide in theatres from December 25."
The just released trailer begins with Vikram Prabhu, a cop whose duties include escorting prisoners to courts and bringing them back to prisons, being assigned the task of escorting a prisoner called Abdul Rauf to the Sivagangai court. Vikram Prabhu, accompanied by two other policemen, takes the prisoner in his custody and the group begins its journey to the court.
The trailer shows the prisoner pleading with Vikram Prabhu, not to handcuff him while taking him from the bus stand to the court. However, the cops refuse to oblige saying prisoners, who commit murders, will be handcuffed and dragged through the streets.
"You must have thought about all this before committing a murder," they tell him. The trailer then shows that the prisoner, Abdul, is in this position because of his girlfriend, who herself has a difficult time at home. Abdul escapes from the custody of the policemen.
What makes matters worse is that he has escaped with one of their rifles. The cops will now have to either catch Abdul or spend their lives behind bars...
