Intriguing trailer of SJ Suryah, Raghava Lawrence's action-comedy 'Jigarthanda Double X' unveiled

The story is set in 1975. The video shows Lawrence as a gangster, who wants to challenge Tamil cinema's traditional perceptions of skin colour. SJ Suryah plays a director in the film, who was Satyajit Ray's former assistant and aspires to make a film with Lawrence's character.

'Jigarthanda Double X' also stars Nimisha Sajayan, Naveen Chandra, and Shine Tom Chacko in pivotal roles.

Taking to Instagram, trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the trailer the video and captioned it, "AGHAVA LAWRENCE - SJ SURYAH: 'JIGARTHANDA DOUBLE X' *HINDI* TRAILER IS HERE...

The movie is an action gangster genre just like 'Jigarthanda' written and directed by Karthik Subbaraj.
