The official teaser of Jyothika’s Kaatrin Mozhi was released on Thursday. The one-minute teaser begins with the actor practising a deep-throated modulation of “hello”. The rest of the teaser tries to capture Jyothika’s character and her relationship with her co-stars. Actor Vidarth plays her husband and Lakshmi Manchu her boss at the FM station.
Kaatrin Mozhi is the Tamil remake of the Bollywood flick Tumhari Sulu, starring Vidya Balan in the lead. Therefore, the teaser has stayed in line with the original’s teaser wherein Vidya Balan does the sexy-version of “hello”. The superhero cape and quirky expressions have been retained from the original. The teaser also reveals her name in the film - Vijayalakshmi.
Kaatrin Mozhi is being directed by Radha Mohan who had previously collaborated with Jyothika in Mozhi that came out in 2007. The film also stars Kumaravel, MS Bhaskar, Manobala, Mohan Raman, Uma Padmanabhan, Sindhu Shekaran and Seema Taneja.
The film went on the floors in June this year and is gearing up for release in October. National Award-winning editor KL Praveen and cinematographer Mahesh Muthusamy have been roped in to work for this film.
On the occasion of her last day of the shoot with the team, Jyothika surprised everyone by gifting a silk saree and silk (dhoti) veshti and shirt to all the crew members and took photos with them.
After an eight-year-long hiatus, Jyothika made a comeback with 36 Vayadhinile. She was later seen playing a ruthless, no-nonsense cop in Bala’s Naachiyaar and a spirited young filmmaker in Magalir Mattum alongside Saranya, Urvashi and Banupriya.
Jyothika also has Mani Ratnam’s Chekka Chivantha Vaanam up for release this month, in which she’ll be seen sharing screen space with a huge cast that includes Arvind Swamy, Aishwarys Rajesh, Aditi Rao Hydari, Simbu, Arun Vijay and others.
