Asif Ali, Amala Paul in Level Cross Trailer

The trailer opens with the line: "We often project only 10% of who we are from inside. But the emotions that we hold back are what create problems." Then, we are introduced to Amala Paul’s character, a psychiatrist who seems to be stuck in a deserted area. Asif Ali plays a gritty and grumpy railway gateman who lives alone in a secluded area. Sharafudheen, on the other hand, is a former patient of Amala Paul's character, who later forms a relationship with her. However, something goes wrong, as she ends up with Asif Ali in the deserted place, where the mystery unfolds. Based on the trailer, it looks like Asif Ali might be playing a character with negative shades, and the film is set to revolve around these three central characters. Overall, the trailer promises a gripping tale about the three protagonists and how their stories are interconnected.
