Promising a powerful and gripping legal thriller, the trailer features excerpts from the courtroom where we see Pawan Kalyan representing the movie’s three female leads while Prakash Raj is seen as the opposing counsel. Different versions of an incident are presented by both sides. Prakash Raj is seen presenting arguments that indulge in character assassination of the three women and accusing them of harming the accused men, while Pawan Kalyan tries to prove otherwise. The two minute and nine seconds long trailer also has action sequences where Pawan Kalyan is seen taking down some goons.
