Releasing
the
trailer
AR
Rahman
wrote
on
Twitter,
"Delighted
to
launch
the
trailer
of
#PuthamPudhuKaalai.
Congratulations
to
the
team
on
their
new
beginnings."
The
film
is
an
anthology
of
five
short
films
helmed
by
five
directors-
Suhasini
Mani
Ratnam,
Sudha
Kongara,
Gautham
Vasudev
Menon,
Rajiv
Menon
and
Karthik
Subbaraj.
Though
all
the
five
stories
have
distinctive
storylines,
characterization
and
narrative,
the
one
thing
which
is
common
in
all
of
them
is
the
21
days
lockdown
announced
by
Prime
Minister
Narendra
Modi
on
March
24,
2020,
which
is
referred
to
as
new
beginnings.
The
trailer
shows
how
in
each
story,
the
characters
respond
to
the
sudden
lockdown
and
how
they
deal
with
it
during
the
period.
The
theme
of
the
film
is
based
on
love,
relationships
and
second
chances
and
new
beginnings
in
life.
