The makers of upcoming Malayalam film, Bharathanatyam, released its trailer today (August 10), days ahead of its theatrical release. August 23 marks the theatrical release of Bharathanatyam, Saiju Kurup's first production.

The film's humorous storyline and main characters are hinted at in this one minute and fifty-eight-second clip. Saiju plays Sasi, an optimistic but unemployed man who is frequently taunted by his relatives for lacking practical choices in life. He is seen to be at odds with another man, portrayed by Abhiram, though. It is unclear why they are at odds with each other. Overall, the teaser suggests a wild and hilarious treat for moviegoers in theatres.
