Captain
Think Music India has dropped the official trailer of upcoming Tamil-language sci-fi action thriller Captain, starring Arya. The film is directed by Shakti Soundarrajan, who previously directed Arya in last year’s Teddy.
The two-minute-36-second-long action-packed trailer opens against the backdrop of an army base. Arya's voice-over explains the four steps the army follows while taking on perpetrators — identifying the enemy, finding their weakness, deceiving the enemy and finally, the fight. An area called Sector 42, which is devoid of any military activity or civilian activity for 50 years, suddenly becomes the focus point as people who went there have never returned.
Actress Aishwarya Lekshmi plays the female lead in the film which also stars Simran, Kavya Shetty and Harish Uthaman in important roles.
Captain will arrive in cinemas on September 8.
