Mohanlal’s ‘Malaikottai Vaaliban’ trailer lauded for its rich visuals

The trailer of Malaikottai Vaaliban gave a glimpse into the story, which happens in a highly-populated terrain. The negative characters were introduced with a mask on their faces.

Mohanlal, as Malaikottai Vaaliban, was shown at the end of the trailer. However, he made a grand entry.

Malaikottai Vaaliban was portrayed as the saviour of these people. He appeared from an array of men in a crowd.

Also, the trailer revealed that the Mangodu ring wielded deceit, not sportsmanship.

The trailer had bloodshed. “Men who oppose the rule are mercilessly killed, and there is fear and bloodshed everywhere,” says the voiceover.

The stunning visuals by Madhu Neelakandan became the highlight of the trailer.

However, the trailer did not give any idea about the genre of the movie.
