The first trailer of the upcoming action-drama, Asuran, dropped on the internet today. The movie stars Dhanush, Manju Warrier and has been directed by Vetrimaaran. The first footage of Asuran is quite a roller coaster ride. Entirely set in a village, the first footage is high on action sequences. There are a few scenes were emotions run amok. In the film, we will see Dhanush play dual roles; the father and the son. Manju Warrier is making her Tamil debut with the movie. Asuran is based on the Tamil novel "Vekkai" by Poomani. It is the fourth collaboration between Dhanush and Vetrimaaran after Pollathavan, Aadukalama and Vada Chennai. Asuran: Manju Warrier and Dhanush Make For a Happy Couple in This New Still.

It seems that Dhanush's character will avenge the murder of someone he loved. The action sequences are gritty and rustic. There are a lot of slow-motion sequences. And of course, the best thing about the trailer is the background score, which itself seems to be pumping adrenaline. Dhanush Fans Trend #WeStandWithDHANUSH after AL Azhagappan Demands Producers to Not Produce the Asuran Actor’s Films.

Though being based on a popular book, Asuran takes the liberty of deviating from the source material. The subject has been addressed by the director himself. In a recent interview to The Hindu, Vetri Maaran stated that the film may not satisfy those who have read the book, but it will be a different cinematic experience.

Asuran is set to release on October 4. We are eagerly looking forward to the film. Stay tuned to LatestLY for more updates on Dhanush and Asuran.
