The trailer begins with the visuals of a comet across the sky. The comet asks for the sacrifice of royal blood. The next scene introduces Chiyaan Vikram as Aditha Karikalan, Jayam Ravi as Arunmozhi Varman, and Karthi as Vanthiyathevan. The three men brandish swords, ride horses, and go out on adventures and various secret missions. They meet princesses of distant lands, including Trisha Krishnan, who plays Kundavai.
The spotlight of the trailer is none other than B-Town diva Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who essays the role of Queen Nandini. She is playing a crucial double role in the film. Wars and battles between the two kingdoms ensue and blood is shed in the scenes that follow but Nandini’s eyes do not leave the royal throne. It is shown that Nandini is on a mission to seek vengeance. At the same time, she portrays Mandakini Devi in the historical drama. It will be interesting to see Aishwariya in the two roles.
