There’s a fitting warning for a character in a mythological thriller, “Don’t wander into the jungle behind the house,” and the trailer for director Nirmal Sahadev’s latest Malayalam film Kumari goes beyond warning its audiences: it sets spectacularly often spooky. But the film’s constantly interesting world.
more than two minute trailer aishwarya lakshmi Hard Kumari begins with the announcement of someone’s arrival, “The one we’ve been waiting for twelve generations… Soon, it’ll all be over.”
As we—and Kumari—learn during the trailer, the forest is haunted by Ilimala Chathan and some information is kept hidden, as “every family has its own dark secrets.”
Written by Nirmal Sahdev and Fazal Hameed, Kumari is said to be a “genre bending” film. The film’s trailer teases a largely theatrical experience, including a scintillating score by Jake Bejoy and gorgeous frames by director of photography Abraham Joseph.
