Tamil cinema is all set to welcome a gripping crime thriller titled Maargan, starring the multi-talented Vijay Antony in the lead role. Known for delivering intense performances, Antony not only headlines the cast but also composes the film's music. Directed by Leo John Paul, Maargan is shaping up to be a dark, suspenseful tale that blends investigation with hints of the supernatural.

Release Date

Maargan is scheduled to release in theatres on June 27, 2025. The film is expected to make a pan-India impact, with dubbed versions in Telugu, Hindi, Malayalam, and the original Tamil. Interestingly, it will clash at the box office with another Tamil film, Love Marriage, releasing on the same day.

Trailer Glimpse

The official trailer of Maargan offers a sneak peek into a mysterious and high-stakes crime narrative. A burnt body found in a heap of garbage sets the plot rolling, with Vijay Antony playing a high-ranking police officer on the hunt for a brutal serial killer.
