Chennai, March 13, 2026: Following its internet-shattering teaser, which unveiled the bizarre mystery of a severed head, JioHotstar has dropped the gripping trailer for its upcoming series ‘Muthu Alias Kaattaan’, diving deeper into the show’s intriguing world.
While the teaser ignited curiosity with Muthu’s shocking severed head, the trailer expands the narrative, revealing layered accounts from characters who paint vastly different portraits of the man. Feared outlaw or misunderstood hero? As perspectives clash, the mystery deepens, slowly unraveling the truth behind Muthu and the events that led to his gruesome discovery.
Headlined by Vijay Sethupathi, the series also features Milind Soman, Sudev Nair, and Muthukumar, among other prominent faces.
Talking about the trailer, Vijay Sethupathi, said, “When Manikandan first narrated Kaattaan to me, he shared a six-page synopsis. I was instantly hooked by the character and the world he had imagined. Working on this series gave me a real sense of peace as an actor. I truly hope that when audiences watch it, they walk away with something meaningful to reflect on.”
Sharing his thoughts on the trailer, Milind Soman, said, “As someone who is selective about projects he chooses, Kaattaan stood out for its gripping narrative and bold characters and Sivettan was a role I couldn’t resist. Working on the series was an absolute thrill from the immersive sets, sharp direction, and collaborating with Vijay Sethupathi and the team brought this enigmatic figure to life in ways that pushed me creatively.”
The series is created by National Award-winning filmmaker M. Manikandan, known for his distinctive storytelling voice. Direction is helmed by M. Manikandan and B. Ajith Kumar, while acclaimed cinematographer Madhu Neelakandan crafts the striking visual language of the series. The music is composed by Rajesh Murugesan, adding a powerful sonic dimension to the world of Kaattaan.
