On
Tuesday
(July
27),
the
highly
awaited
trailer
of
Navarasa
was
released
on
the
internet.
The
1-minute-59-second
video
showed
different
emotions
of
actors
including
Suriya,
Vijay
Sethupathi,
Arvind
Swami,
Siddharth,
Revathy,
Parvathy
Thiruvothu
and
others
from
the
nine
segments
of
the
anthology
web
series.
Though
many
were
reminded
of
Suriya
and
Vijay
Sethupathi's
characters
Suriya
and
Bhavani,
from
their
respective
films
Vaaranam
Aayiram
(2008)
and
Master
(2021)
which
looks
quite
similar
to
the
roles
they
are
playing
in
the
Netflix
series,
what
caught
the
major
attention
of
netizens
is
Bigg
Boss
Malayalam
3
winner
Manikuttan's
mention
in
the
comment
section
of
the
trailer
dropped
on
YouTube.
In
the
trailer,
one
can
see
his
character
being
introduced
by
Yogi
Babu
as
the
latter
says
standing
at
the
dais,
"Children
have
given
him
(Manikuttan)
a
suitable
nickname."
In
another
sequence,
a
furious
Manikuttan
as
'Sanda
Mani'
appears
on
screen,
and
we
must
say
his
role
looks
completely
different
and
fresh.
Well,
fans
are
highly
thrilled
and
are
eagerly
looking
forward
to
Navarasa,
as
the
series
is
all
set
to
release
on
August
6
on
Netflix.
Notably,
several
fans
have
been
praising
the
young
actor,
who
is
popularly
known
by
the
acronym
MK
in
the
comment
section
of
the
trailer,
which
has
also
aroused
curiosity
among
netizens,
who
are
now
wondering
who
Manikuttan
is
and
why
he
is
getting
so
much
attention
than
the
other
lead
stars.
For
those
unversed,
Manikuttan
has
predominantly
worked
in
Malayalam
films.
His
maiden
Tamil
venture
was
Nimir
that
released
in
2018.
The
star
garnered
huge
attention
of
the
audiences
after
he
recently
appeared
in
the
Malayalam
version
of
Bigg
Boss
hosted
by
Mohanlal.
Though
the
finale
of
the
show
is
yet
to
be
aired
on
television,
recent
reports
and
pictures
on
social
media
suggest
that
Manikuttan
has
won
the
coveted
trophy.
His
humble
nature
and
roles
which
he
played
during
several
tasks
in
the
show
were
highly
appreciated
by
the
audiences
from
all
corners.
With
the
show,
the
actor
garnered
an
immense
fan
following
and
it
indeed
is
the
reason
why
he
is
being
celebrated
in
the
comment
section
of
the
trailer.
Coming
back
to
Navarasa,
the
web
series
is
directed
by

Gautham
Vasudev
Menon,
Bejoy
Nambiar,

Subbaraj,
Sarjun
KM,
Karthick
Naren,
