Rathna Kumar makes a return to the big screen with his latest directorial venture, '29'. The newly launched trailer has already started generating buzz among audiences. This exciting project introduces fresh faces Vidhu and Preethi Asrani as the lead protagonists.
Romantic Drama Set in the '90s
The romantic film portrays the journey of love within the context of the 1990s era, reminiscent of films like 'Meyaadha Maan' and 'Aadai'. The project has also garnered attention because it is jointly backed by acclaimed filmmakers Karthik Subbaraj and Lokesh Kanagaraj, raising expectations ahead of its release.
Inside the '29' Trailer
The trailer introduces Sathya, a 29-year-old man struggling to find his purpose in life. While feeling lost, he meets Viji, an enterprising young woman preparing for her UPSC examination. Their evolving relationship begins to change his life. The trailer beautifully captures both their romance and personal struggles. However, complications arise when their dreams and ambitions pull them in different directions. With a blend of romance, comedy, and drama, the trailer promises a youthful entertainer with emotional depth.
Rathna Kumar Clears Rumours
During a recent press meet, Rathna Kumar revealed that the idea for '29' actually originated from a Facebook post he had shared earlier. The filmmaker also addressed rumours claiming the story was based on his personal love life. He clearly stated that the film is entirely fictional and not inspired by his own experiences.
