OM Trailer Review
The 3-minute and 3-second trailer indicates a powerful action drama is loading. Focuses on the sandalwood smuggling at the Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu border area, set between two temple towns. Both the states’ high commissions picked the eligible officers and created an exclusive special task force called the Organized Crime Intelligence Unit to stop this crime against nature.
Sai Pallavi‘s character, ASP Nithya Reddy, leads Andhra Pradesh’s task force. On the other hand, Dhanush‘s character, Palanivel, heads the exclusive Tamil Nadu force. Mammootty portrays Siya as the mastermind behind this smuggling, who is likely tied to high-level politics as well. The key twist in the trailer reveals that Dhanush is an undercover cop working among the smugglers and deeply keeps an eye on and closely observes their movements to catch the mastermind. The trailer also shows he became very close to Siya.
The glimpse looks interesting and, in the climax, delivers goosebumps, powered by Sai Abhyankkar’s excellent BGM and director Rajkumar Periasamy’s clever trailer cut.
