The trailer of director Bejoy Nambiar’s Tu Yaa Main was unveiled today offering a sharp shift in mood as it unfolds. What begins with a vibe reminiscent of the youthful, rhythmic energy of Apna Time Ayega (Gully Boy) types soon takes a darker and more gripping turn, pulling viewers into a tense creature thriller. The trailer introduces a couple – Adarsh Gourav and Shanaya Kapoor trapped inside a swimming pool, only to realise they are not alone. The discovery of a crocodile in the same confined space sets the stage for a high-stakes survival drama. The visuals are clean and well-framed, using the limited setting to build suspense and discomfort, keeping the tension consistently high.
Music plays a key role in the trailer’s impact. The energetic background score, blended with retro songs, lifts the pace and keeps the viewer engaged. The foot-tapping tracks add an unusual contrast to the danger on screen, making the experience both thrilling and oddly immersive.
The film is produced by Aanand L Rai, known for backing unconventional romantic stories, along with Vinod Bhanushali, who brings strong marketing experience and a growing reputation as a producer. Together, they support a project that feels different from mainstream thrillers.
The lead pair also adds to the film’s curiosity value. Adarsh Gourav, known for his diverse choice of roles across varied cinema, is paired with Shanaya Kapoor, who is still early in her career. Their combination feels fresh and unexpected.
Adding further weight is Bejoy Nambiar’s reputation for unique storytelling and unconventional themes. Tu Yaa Main is an official adaptation of the 2018 Thai horror thriller The Pool, directed by Ping Lumpraploeng.
Overall, the trailer promises a compact, intense survival thriller with a strong musical edge and a distinct creative vision, setting Tu Yaa Main apart as an intriguing upcoming release.
