'Sarpatta Parambarai': Suriya unveils trailer for Arya's upcoming sports drama
The trailer for Tamil sports drama Sarpatta Parambarai is here, and Arya as a dedicated boxer will surely hook your attention. Fellow superstar Suriya launched it earlier today, congratulating the entire team "for creating this epic film." Set around the boxing culture prevalent in North Chennai in the 1970s, the Pa. Ranjith-directorial will release on Amazon Prime Video on July 22.
Story of a boxing clan, its struggle to regain glory
At the center of the action is a boxing clan called Sarpatta. Holding onto its glorious history, its members are trying to win matches and regain their footing. Kabilan (Arya) also belongs to this clan, and is shown as a passionate, hot-headed youth. As the opening scenes of the trailer suggest, the final face-off between the Sarpatta and Idiyappa clans will be the climax.
Arya remains undeterred to represent clan despite lack of support
Throughout the trailer, we see multiple people obstruct Kabilan from competing, either due to lack of trust or by undermining his potential. But lack of solidarity doesn't shake him and we expect the fate of his clan will rest on him. The over-three-minute clip ends at an emotional high, as Mohammad Ali's famous quote ("float like a butterfly sting like a bee") is heard.
'The hard work put in by team is evident onscreen!!'
