The trailer for Karthick Naren's highly anticipated thriller Naragasooran is finally here. The film was mired in controversy because of the spat between Karthick Naren and Gautham Menon, who was supposed to produce the film. The public online fight between the two saw the lead star Aravind Swamy also weighing in and batting for Karthick Naren.

After several delays, the release date of the film has been announced as August 31. The trailer, which was launched on Wednesday, has the film's protagonists seated before a fire and speaking, one by one. Interestingly, both Aravind Swamy and Indrajith are seen wearing similar clothes, with the latter playing a cop investigating a mystery.

The story suggests that a child who is adopted grows up to be the villain. Aathmika and Shriya Saran also make an appearance in the trailer, as does Sundeep Kishan. It looks like Shriya and Aravind Swamy play characters who are in a relationship together, with something going wrong between them. We don't know yet who Naragasooran refers to - is it just the place or a moniker for one of the protagonists?

The film, it appears, will have a lot of night shots and sequences, much like Karthick's first film Dhurvangal Pathinaaru. The music has been scored by Ron Ethan Yohann. The unique title, the cast, and the fact that Karthick's debut film was a blockbuster, have upped the expectations majorly for Naragasooran.

Karthick is among the youngest directors in Kollywood today and he has succeeded in establishing himself as a force to reckon with. Several social media users congratulated the filmmaker on bringing the film to the screens at last.
