The excitement is reaching fever pitch as the makers of the highly anticipated action thriller ‘Bazooka’, starring Malayalam megastar Mammootty, have unveiled a high-octane pre-release teaser just a day before the film’s official theatrical debut on April 10, 2025. Directed by Deeno Dennis, the film promises a slick blend of suspense, action, and mystery, and the latest teaser delivers exactly that—thrills without revealing too much.

Teaser Highlights: Minimal Dialogues, Maximum Impact

The pre-release teaser is intentionally low on dialogues, opting instead for intense action sequences that showcase Mammootty’s mysterious character in full gear, wielding firearms with expert precision. Without unveiling his identity, the teaser hints at a protagonist who is calm, composed, and deadly, raising curiosity about the character’s backstory and mission.

Production house Saregama, which is co-producing the film, shared the teaser on social media with the caption: “Less Than 24 Hours to Go for #Bazooka. Here is the Much Awaited Pre Release Teaser. #Bazooka In Cinemas From Tomorrow.”

The cryptic and stylish visuals have already sparked massive online buzz, with fans praising Mammootty’s suave screen presence and the teaser’s cinematic flair.

Star-Studded Cast and Intriguing Characters

'Bazooka' boasts a stellar ensemble cast, featuring popular names from Malayalam cinema. Actress Divya Pillai plays the role of Annie Benjamin, while Shine Tom Chacko steps into the shoes of Franco Salvatore, both intriguing characters whose roles are expected to add depth and drama to the plot.

Adding even more weight to the project is filmmaker and actor Gautham Vasudev Menon, who plays the role of Benjamin Joshua, an ACP in Cochin city. Described as a tough, no-nonsense cop, Benjamin is known for his ability to track down even the most elusive criminals. He leads a strategically trained task force, one that works seamlessly under his leadership.

Powerful Dialogue and Plot Tease in the Main Trailer

A previously released trailer gives audiences a broader glimpse into the film’s gripping narrative. It opens with Mammootty’s voice describing Gautham Menon’s character, emphasizing Benjamin’s no-compromise approach to crime. But the real twist comes when Gautham Menon, in turn, begins to describe Mammootty’s enigmatic character: “He is Mr. Nobody but definitely a somebody. Classy, sleek. If you ask me whether he’s a troublemaker… I don’t think so, because that’s too simple a word to describe him.”

These words hint at a complex, layered protagonist, someone who operates in moral gray zones and is potentially more dangerous than the villains he confronts.

Plot Overview: A Game of Wits, Morality, and Redemption

The voiceover in the trailer sets the tone for what’s to come: “This is a game. In this game of good vs evil, the ultimate goal is salvation.”

The film revolves around a deadly cat-and-mouse chase involving layered characters, shifting alliances, and moral dilemmas. As the trailer unfolds, it’s revealed that Mammootty and Gautham Menon’s characters are not adversaries, but rather unlikely allies who team up to face a formidable common enemy threatening the city and possibly their personal codes of justice.

Director and Technical Team Behind ‘Bazooka’

The film is directed by Deeno Dennis, a promising talent poised to make his mark with this stylish action thriller. The production has been handled by a team of seasoned producers, including Vikram Mehra, Sidharth Anand Kumar, Dolwin Kuriakose, Jinu V Abraham, and Sahil S Sharma.

The cinematography is helmed by Nimish Ravi, while Midhun Mukundan provides the film’s pulsating background score. Editing is handled by Nishadh Yusuf, and the action—clearly a key element in the film—is choreographed by Mahesh Mathew, Vicky, PC Stunts, and Mafia Sasi.

Together, this team brings a high-production-value visual experience that combines intense storytelling with sleek action choreography, setting ‘Bazooka’ apart as a premium Malayalam action drama.

Mammootty Continues to Reinvent with Every Role

With Bazooka, Mammootty continues his impressive streak of taking on challenging and diverse roles, proving once again why he remains one of Indian cinema’s most respected and enduring stars. After collaborations like Dominic and the Ladies Purse with Gautham Vasudev Menon, this film further explores his versatility in a stylized action setting, merging depth with dynamism.

Final Word: High Expectations Ahead of April 10 Release

With fans buzzing across social media, the anticipation surrounding ‘Bazooka’ has never been higher. Between its mysterious protagonist, gritty action, and narrative twists, the film promises to be a gripping ride from start to finish.

As Bazooka hits theatres on April 10, all eyes are on Mammootty, Gautham Menon, and the rest of the ensemble to deliver a game-changing action thriller that blends style, story, and soul in equal measure.
