The film's teaser features a playful conversation between Tovino and Dulquer Salmaan, who was previously introduced as Odiyan in a social media post.
At one point, Tovino jokes with Dulquer, asking, “Why don't you call me once in a while -- in 50 years or even 100 years?” The banter continues as Tovino mentions that his brother is out now, unlike him, and could be violent.
