“Tell me, who came first? The police or the thieves?”

Tovino Thomas’ character poses a riddle that’s easier to unravel than the age-old chicken and egg conundrum. The trailer for the Minnal Murali star’s new movie, “Ajayante Randam Moshanam,” teases viewers with a grand historical tale spanning three generations and multiple timelines. This setup allows lead actor Tovino Thomas to don multiple avatars and showcase his versatility in the film.

The 2-minute, 43-second trailer for “Ajayante Randam Moshanam” is set in northern Kerala, in the fictional region of Haripuram. Tovino Thomas makes his first appearance in the trailer with a dramatic, gritty shot wielding a blood-soaked sword as a ‘Kalari’ combatant. As the narration unfolds, viewers learn that Tovino is portraying three distinct characters: Maniyan, Ajayan, and Kunjikelu. The fictional setting allows a blend of myth, folklore, and history for the story.

A fierce warrior, a master thief, and possibly an ordinary citizen, Tovino Thomas slips into three very different roles with ease in the “Ajayante Randam Moshanam” trailer. The film’s description reads: “Set in Northern Kerala, three generations of heroes, Maniyan, Kunjikelu, and Ajayan, try to protect the most important treasure of the land.” However, the trailer reveals little about the central plot, instead focusing on the promise of a visually engaging journey filled with action, blood, drama, and suspense.

Directed by Jithin Lal and written by Sujith Nambiar, “Ajayante Randam Moshanam” also stars Krithi Shetty, Aishwarya Rajesh, Surabhi Lakshmi, and Basil Joseph, among others. The film is set for a theatrical release on Onam. You can watch the trailer on YouTube (also embedded below).
