Vijay Antony Believes Maargan's Storyline Will Keep You Guessing Till The End
Last Updated:
In the film, Vijay Antony plays a cop named Dhruv working with the Mumbai police.
Vijay Antony's latest film, Maargan, was released in theatres today. Fans have already shared a bunch of reviews on social media, praising the performances and compelling storyline. Maargan has been touted as a murder mystery thriller, but for Vijay Antony, it is much more than that. He believes that the film can keep the audience hooked till the end.
In an interview with Deccan Chronicle, Vijay Antony said, 'Maargan isn't a typical serial killer movie. From the first frame to the last, it keeps the audience engaged." He even suggested that the music is going to be haunting which he has composed.
Earlier, director Leo John Paul told IANS, 'Forty per cent of this film will centre around investigation. The remaining 60 per cent will revolve around mystery. To put it correctly in English, it will deal with astral travel. If you watch the last shot of this film's trailer, you will see the astral body of the character coming out. Fantasy is a favourite genre of mine as it helps me see cinema in a larger than life manner. So, combining both fantasy and an investigative thriller in equal measure, we have made this film."
The film has been gaining popularity since the makers published a trailer.
In Maargan, Vijay Antony plays a cop named Dhruv working with the Mumbai police. The plot revolves around Dhruv, who has experienced personal grief, takes it upon himself to track down a serial killer who appears to be targeting young females. The killer appears to inject a drug into the victims, leaving their bodies burned. As cops approach and interrogate a suspect, they find they are dealing with someone far more powerful than expected.
Aside from Vijay Antony, key players include Ajay Dhishan, Samuthirakani, Brigida, Deepshikha, Mahanathi Shankar, and Vinodh Sagar. Vijay Antony composed the film's music, while his wife, Fatima Vijay Antony, produced it. S Yuva is the cinematographer, and Leo John Paul is the editor. Maargan will be released simultaneously in Tamil and Telugu.

Naga Chaitanya Reveals His Sacred Weekend Ritual With Wife Sobhita Dhulipala
Last Updated: On Sunday, the couple either watch a film, take a stroll, or order their favourite food. Telugu star Naga Chaitanya recently shared insights into his married life with actress Sobhita Dhulipala. The actor shared that when they are both in Hyderabad, they make it a point to have breakfast and dinner together. On Sundays, the couple spends some quality time while watching a film, taking a stroll, or ordering their favourite food. In an interview with Man's World, Naga Chaitanya shared that they take turns planning vacations. 'She's into reading, I'm into racing. But we're both creative people. We take turns planning holidays. One time it's her lead, the next time it's mine," the actor said. Naga Chaitanya recalled the time when he taught Sobhita how to drive on a racetrack. He shared that 'once she started driving, she didn't want to stop". When asked which person he admires the most, the actor said, 'My dad and my mom and I put my wife as number three". Naga Chaitanya is the son of Telugu star Nagarjuna and Lakshmi Daggubati. Last month, rumours about Sobhita Dhulipala's pregnancy started circulating online. The buzz began after the actress attended the WAVES 2025 event in Mumbai, draped in a saree that many speculated was strategically styled to hide a baby bump. A family insider soon put the rumours to rest. In a quote to ETimes, the source said, 'She wore anti-fit, not maternity. It's amazing how a change in silhouette can birth a whole new storyline." Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala's love story began with a fan question during one of Sobhita's Instagram AMAs. The actress realised Naga Chaitanya was following her and returned the favour. That moment led to DMs, frequent conversations and eventually, love. 'There was no mic drop. It just happened very organically," Sobhita shared with Vogue. After two years of romance, the couple got engaged in Hyderabad on August 8, 2024. They tied the knot on December 4 at Annapurna Studios in the presence of their close friends and family. Their union came three years after Naga Chaitanya's split from Samantha Ruth Prabhu. First Published:
