Trailer of Ramesh Aravind’s next directorial, 100, to drop on November 6 at 11 am

Actor-filmmaker Ramesh Aravind is counting down to the release of his next directorial, 100, which is slated to hit theatres on November 19. The film, which is getting a Kannada-Telugu bilingual release, has been produced by Ramesh Reddy and stars Rachita Ram, Poorna (Shamna Kasim), Prakash Belawadi, among others.

So far, there’s only a song from the film in the public domain and Ramesh, who plays a cybercrime police officer in it, is now ready to give audiences a glimpse into the world of 100 with the trailer launch during Deepavali. The trailer will be released online on November 6 at 11 am, posted the actor-filmmaker on social media.

Speaking to us earlier, Ramesh had said, ““100 is a family drama, and revolves around a husband, wife and their kid, with a cybercrime angle, which makes it a niche subject. This is a film about how technology is messing our lives. There’s a saying that ‘a knife in the wrong hand can cause a river of blood, while power in the wrong hands can distort history’. Similarly, technology in the wrong hands can be an absolute killer and that is what this film explores. I’d call it a family thriller and am quite happy with how the film has turned out.”

As for the film’s box-office clash with Raj B Shetty’s Garuda Gamana Vrishabha Vahana and Manu Ravichandran’s Mugilpete, he had said, ““The plan was to release 100 on the 50th day of Shivaji Surathkal, but that was not to be owing to the pandemic. In the time since, we have been waiting for a window to release the film, with 100% theatre occupancy, and the calendar right now is jam-packed with films. We have zeroed in on November 19, which gives us time for publicity. We have been waiting for almost two years and the scenario right now is that if we don’t release in November, our next slot will only be in February 2020. For the foreseeable future, every week will have multiple releases, which cannot be avoided.”
