After piquing the curiosity of movie buffs by sharing a bold poster featuring Vijay Deverakonda, the makers of the Pan India film Liger (Saala Crossbreed) then came up with the first single Akdi Pakdi which shook the entire nation. They have further fuelled the excitement of viewers by dropping the theatrical trailer of the Puri Jagannadh directorial. Megastar Chiranjeevi, alongside Prabhas launched the Telugu trailer, Dulquer Salmaan unveiled the Malayalam and Ranveer Singh released the Hindi trailer.
While the film’s first glimpse introduced Vijay Deverakonda’s character, the trailer takes us inside into his wild world. Begins with Vijay Deverakonda entering the ring, with Ramya Krishna’s voice briefing the reason behind the name of Liger for his son. “My son is a crossbreed, born to a lion and a tiger,” she utters.
It’s the bumpy journey of a chaiwala, his efforts to represent India and win the MMA title, with many obstacles in the progression. Girlfriend cheats him, though he loves her so much. He has a stammer which is one of the major challenges, wherein he becomes mad and does crazy acts, when he enters the ring. It’s a journey full of emotions, ups and downs. Legend Mike Tyson’s stylish intro, followed by the dialogue exchange with Liger is a feast to watch. When Vijay says, “I’m a Fighter,” Tyson, in reply says, “If you’re a Fighter, what am I.” The last frames of Tyson giving killer look gives a perfect finish to the trailer.
