In the run-up to Christmas weekend, last week (December 8-15) saw the release of teasers/trailers of many big-ticket films. But the ones that stood out were the snippets from these four films- 'Kaakka Muttai' director Manikandan's Kadaisi Vivasayi, Dimal Dennis' debut film Valiya Perunnal, 'Aruvi' director Arun Prabhu Purushothaman's sophomore directorial Vaazhl and Deepika Padukone-starrer Chhapaak directed by Meghna Gulzar.
'Dazzling', 'Ambiguous', these are the adjectives we can use to describe the official teaser of director Arun Prabhu Purushothaman's upcoming film 'Vaazhl'. Despite cutting across various timelines, topography and plotlines, the snippet felt cohesive and symphonic with matching cuts deployed between various shots (the ultra-wide lensing reminds you of Terrence Malick's aesthetic). Vaazhl also featured a lot of motifs from his previous film 'Aruvi' such as travel, glimpses from a reality show and police interrogation.
