The film boasts an impressive ensemble cast including Samuthirakani, Mahanati Shankar, Preethika, Brigida, Vinod Sagar, Deepshika, Kalakka Povathu Yaaru Archana, Kanimozhi, and Anthagaram Natarajan in key roles. With post-production now complete, the team has intensified its promotional activities, and the recently released trailer has significantly heightened expectations.
The 'Maargan' trailer offers a thrilling glimpse into an edge-of-your-seat narrative, packed with suspense, crime, and intricate investigative elements. The visuals, action sequences, and powerful performances have already generated substantial buzz. Vijay Antony's action prowess and Ajay Dhishan's compelling screen presence are particularly standing out. The 'Maargan' team recently visited Hyderabad for the trailer launch event, where they shared their experiences with the press.
Vijay Antony expressed his long-standing association with the director: "I’ve known Leo John Paul for five years. He is one of the best editors, often working with top directors. I was immediately drawn to his storytelling style when he narrated 'Maargan' to me. Everyone loved the trailer. I'm proud to launch my sister Jaya’s son, Ajay, with this film. He previously worked as an assistant director for 'Bichagadu 2,' and I was impressed by his dedication, leading me to offer him this opportunity. Ram sir has been a good friend for many years; he released my first Telugu film 'Nakili' and has supported me ever since. Now, he’s releasing 'Maargan,' and 'Bhadrakaali' will follow soon. Bhashya Shree Garu handles all aspects when my films release in Telugu—this is our 12th collaboration. Deepshika’s role will impress everyone, and Brigida is a truly talented actress. 'Maargan' has turned out exceptionally well—it’s a supernatural thriller and promises an intense, edge-of-the-seat experience. Please watch it in theaters on June 27."
Debutant director Leo John Paul shared his excitement: "'Maargan' is my directorial debut. I'm thankful to Vijay Antony sir and Ramanjaneyulu sir for this opportunity. Though I’ve edited many films, directing was a new and challenging experience. Vijay Antony sir, with his vast experience as a music director, editor, director, and producer, made the journey incredibly smooth with his support. It’s a supernatural thriller. I deeply admire director Rajamouli; his films 'Eega' and 'Magadheera' are my favorites. We’ve invested heavily in this film, with the underwater sequence being particularly challenging. All post-production work was completed in Vijay Antony sir’s studio. Bhashya Shree Garu provided excellent dialogues and lyrics. Vijay sir has given his 100% to the role. Ajay has worked on several films as an AD but delivered an impressive acting performance in this one, especially in the underwater scenes. Deepshika and Brigida also performed wonderfully. 'Maargan' releases on June 27—please watch and support it."
Producer Ramanjaneyulu reflected on his long association with Vijay Antony: "I have known Vijay Antony for the past fifteen years. Back then, he was a successful music composer. He once told me he wanted to try acting, and despite his success, he was determined to act. Since then, I’ve been associated with him. Our first film together was 'Nakili.' Now, we’re releasing 'Maargan,' and 'Bhadrakaali' will also be released soon. Vijay Antony feels like the 'boy next door'—very relatable. He is now paving the way for his nephew Ajay, who already has a project lined up with the director of 'Bichagadu.' Vijay never thinks about money and is always ready to help others. The media should support such a good-hearted person. Please watch and support 'Maargan' when it releases on June 27."
Ajay Dhishan, making his debut, expressed gratitude: "'Maargan' is my debut film. I’m very happy to be introduced under Vijay Antony’s banner. I'm grateful to director Leo John Paul for giving me such a great opportunity. He’s a brilliant creator and a renowned editor in Tamil. Brigida is a very talented person and performed very well as a police officer. Deepshika also acted beautifully. Thanks to Ram sir for releasing the film in Telugu. Bhashya Shree wrote excellent dialogues in Telugu. Our film is coming out on June 27. Everyone, please do watch it!"
Actress Deepshika shared her joy: "I'm very happy today. The Telugu trailer of 'Maargan' has been released, and I celebrated my birthday here today, which makes it extra special. I thank director Leo John Paul for giving me such a good role. He is a very famous editor in Tamil, and now he's making his directorial debut. He has made the film like an experienced filmmaker. Vijay Antony’s films are always unique and socially conscious. That’s why I immediately said yes when I heard it was his movie. Ajay looks exactly like his uncle Vijay Antony. I’m happy to have worked with such a wonderful team. I believe 'Maargan' will be a big hit."
Brigida highlighted the film's significance to her: "'Maargan' is very special to me. It’s my first film this year. I believe that along with passion, one must have patience. Because I waited patiently, I got a film like 'Maargan.' Vijay sir and Leo John Paul sir were my seniors in college. I have a lot to say about 'Maargan,' but I’m afraid I might reveal spoilers! Ajay didn’t act like it was his first film. I played a police officer for the first time. Deepshika is a wonderful person. Please watch and support 'Maargan' when it releases on June 27."
Lyricist and dialogue writer Bhashya Shree teased the audience: "Vijay Antony always comes up with different concepts. 'Maargan' means 'Maargam' in Telugu. Let’s see where this path leads to. This film has a brilliant concept. Ajay Dhishan is our Telugu boy. Deepshika and Brigida performed exceptionally. Watch the film on June 27 to find out the secret behind Vijay Antony’s makeup. Ramanjaneyulu is bringing this film to Telugu audiences. I wrote the dialogues and lyrics for the movie. Everyone, please watch and support the film."
