Yashwanth Kishore's directorial Kannagi is set to hit theaters on December 15. The film stars Keerthi Pandian, Ammu Abhirami, Vidya Pradeep, and Shaalin Zoya in lead roles. Ahead of the film's release, the makers unveiled its trailer.

Kannagi delves into the lives of four women

The trailer hints at Kannagi being a social thriller that delves into the lives of four women from different walks of life. “Women are the only oppressed group in our society that lives in intimate association with their oppressors,” this Evelyn Cunningham quote appears in the middle of the trailer and it seems like the film drew inspiration from it.

Keerthi Pandian takes on the challenging role of a young woman grappling with the decision to undergo an illegal abortion after completing 20 weeks of pregnancy.\

As a character opting for a live-in relationship over traditional matrimony, Shalin Zoya's role explores the complexities of societal judgment and partner expectations. Vidhya Pradeep, on the other hand, portrays a young wife fighting against the injustice of forced divorce.
