‘Paripadi’ Title Reveal: Joju George Packs Intrigue and Action Into a Gripping Teaser
If your pet peeve about movie teasers and trailers is that they often give away the entire plot, then you need to watch the title reveal of “Paripadi,” Joju George’s “Pani” sequel, right away. From the first scene to the end, it tells us a lot without actually saying anything.
From what we gather, “Paripadi” is not your typical sequel, and it could feature a fresh cast. We do not see the faces of any of the actors, but a series of graphic images gives us a clue to the storyline. The makers have used red, yellow and black in the graphics, classic colors used for thriller films in India and abroad. It is complemented by pulsating music that keeps you enthralled.
