The trailer introduces Attakathi Dinesh’s character, known as ‘Gethu,’ a popular gully cricketer in his town who is considered by the locals to be better than MS Dhoni. On the other hand, Harish Kalyan’s character, Anbu, is also renowned as the best among his peers. When Harish’s character falls in love with Attakathi Dinesh’s daughter, an ego clash ensues between the two, as they compete to prove who is the better cricketer. The movie promises a mix of drama and comedy, with cricket as the central theme, and is expected to resonate with Tamil audiences, who have already enjoyed two major cricket-based films this year—Lal Salaam and Blue Star.
