Amala Paul has been trending incessantly across all social media platforms ever since the teaser of her forthcoming film Aadai released on Tuesday night. The minute-long Tamil teaser begins with a quote by Jean Paul Sartre, "Freedom is about what you do with what's been done to you." The film's storyline is not very clear in the teaser. However it had us hooked throughout the course of the video. The teaser begins with a mother complaining to the police about her missing daughter and during her session with the police, she reveals that the last time they had an interaction, her daughter was drunk. The later half of the video features several startling visuals, in which Amala wakes up in a shocked state and finds herself completely naked.
Take a look at the teaser of Aadai here:
Meanwhile, the trailer got a big shout out from Telugu star Samantha Ruth Prabhu and filmmaker Karan Johar. "Looks amazing Amala... All the best to you. Curiosity levels high. Looking forward," tweeted Samantha."
