Amazon Prime on Tuesday unveiled the explosive trailer of the upcoming Malayalam political thriller Maalik ahead of its world premiere on 15 July.
The trailer follows the rise of Sulaiman Maalik (Fahadh Faasil), a firebrand leader from a coastal village, from childhood to middle age when he gains prominence.
Going by the visuals of the trailer, the film will delve into topics like crime, politics and power.
In the action-packed clip, a female narrator, presumably Sulaiman's mother, rues his fate while the lead character throws down the gauntlet to the authorities, openly admitting to killing a prominent figure, chopping him up and throwing him into the sea. Amid political machinations, a standoff seems to takes place in the village.
Maalik’s story unfolds over two weeks, flitting back and forth between the past and present. The film also stars Nimisha Sajayan, Joju George, Dileesh Pothan and Divya Prabha.
Check out the trailer below and let us know if you are keen on watching the film.
