In Short

  • Keerthy Suresh plays a young lawyer in Sathyavan Savithiri
  • The film blends comedy, suspense and legal drama around a murder mystery
  • Keerthy defends her husband, accused of killing a woman named Veronica

Actor Keerthy Suresh is ready to trade her usual on-screen roles for a courtroom battle in Sathyavan Savithiri. The film's trailer promises an intriguing mix of comedy, suspense and legal drama, with a murder mystery at its centre. It also sets up an interesting face-off between Keerthy, who plays a young lawyer, and Mysskin, who appears as her formidable senior. But the biggest twist? Her first major case involves defending her own husband, who stands accused of murder.

The 2-minute-34-second trailer introduces Savithiri, an aspiring lawyer who is pushed into marriage against her wishes. Her relationship with Deepak (Charukesh) gets off to an awkward start, but his patience and respect for her gradually help them find common ground. Just when their marriage begins to settle, Deepak is accused of murdering a woman named Veronica.

Savithiri takes up her husband's case, determined to prove his innocence. However, the challenge is far from easy. She has to take on Markandeyan (Mysskin), an experienced lawyer who appears determined to stand in her way. The trailer hints at a tense courtroom showdown, with Savithiri having to match her senior's legal experience and sharp arguments despite being relatively inexperienced.

The trailer moves between moments of humour, relationship drama and tense courtroom exchanges. Keerthy's Savithiri is spirited and confident, but the case puts her abilities to the test. Mysskin, meanwhile, brings an imposing presence as the seasoned lawyer who challenges her at every turn.

Beyond the courtroom clash, the murder mystery adds another layer of intrigue. Deepak's alleged involvement in Veronica's death raises questions about what really happened and whether the man Savithiri is fighting to save is telling her the whole truth. Is he innocent, or is there more to the case than meets the eye? The trailer leaves that question open, setting up the central mystery.
