Comedian turned hero Santhanam's Dikkiloona, which was initially planned for a theatrical release in 2020, will now be premiering directly on the ZEE5 Tamil OTT platform from September 10. Announced to begin streaming on the auspicious occasion of Vinayagar Chathurthi, the upcoming film billed to be a science-fiction comedy will show Santa in triple roles for the first time in his career. Jointly produced by Rajesh Kotapadi's KJR Studios and Balloon director Sinish’s Soldiers Factory banners, the much-awaited second Dikkiloona trailer has now been released and thus kicking off the pre-release promotions.
The new Dikkiloona trailer shows the plight Santhanam goes through in each of his three characters, with the film's plot centred on the concept of time travel and how one tries to use it to his best advantage in order to make circumstances around him better. Expectations for the film are huge as the trailer teased us of the trials and tribulations faced by Santhanam resulting in hilarious outcomes. Apart from the time travel concept being the major USP of Dikkiloona, the film will see Santhanam sharing screen space alongside two heroines - Natpe Thunai fame Anagha and Shirin Kanchwala, who starred in Nenjamundu Nermaiyundu Odu Raja and Walter.
Dikkiloona is the directorial debut of Karthik Yogi, who incidentally played a supporting role in Master director Lokesh Kanagaraj's Maanagaram. The film has music by Yuvan Shankar Raja, with the supporting cast featuring names like former Indian Cricket Team cricketer Harbhajan Singh, followed by Yogi Babu, Anand Raj, Munish Kanth, Motta Rajendiran, Chitra lakshmanan, Arun Alexander, Sha Rah and YouTuber Prashanth.
