We took it seriously and worked on it. Things went haywire.” Then we have the villain’s intro. Towards the middle of the teaser, a character cracks a one-liner, “If you have jokers around then even a fool will appear to be smart.stylish ” Actor Santhanam has a fantastic slow motion shot with a gang of old folks with a thumping background score.
