When “Natural Star” Nani throws his weight behind a film, you know it’s personal. The actor took to social media to launch the trailer of Saraswathi, penning a heartfelt note: “Some journeys are special because of the people behind them. Super proud to launch the trailer of #Saraswathi, directed by dear friend…” His words instantly amplified the buzz around the Telugu court drama, which marks the directorial debut of Varalaxmi Sarathkumar.
Released on February 21, 2026, the trailer of Saraswathi packs intensity, emotion, and powerful courtroom face-offs into a gripping preview. Varalaxmi not only directs but also headlines the film, stepping into a fierce, no-nonsense space where her character takes on systemic brutality instead of bowing down to it. It’s bold, topical, and unapologetically dramatic — exactly the kind of high-concept storytelling that demands attention.
Front and center alongside her is Priyamani, who plays a formidable lawyer, bringing grit and gravitas to the courtroom scenes. Veteran powerhouse Prakash Raj appears as Ramanujam, adding layers of intensity, while a strong ensemble including Kishore, Naveen Chandra, Radhika Sarathkumar, Murali Sharma, and Saptagiri rounds out the cast. The film promises a blend of emotional drama and legal thriller elements rooted in real-life challenges and women’s experiences.
Elevating the drama is a pulsating score by Thaman S, whose background music in the trailer already hints at goosebump-worthy moments. Produced by Pooja Sarathkumar and Varalaxmi under the Dosa Diaries banner, Saraswathi is gearing up for a multilingual release in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam — aiming to strike a chord across industries.
With Nani’s warm endorsement and a trailer that radiates conviction, Saraswathi is shaping up to be more than just another courtroom drama. It’s a statement project — one that introduces Varalaxmi Sarathkumar the director with confidence and fire. If the trailer is any indication, this journey is indeed special — and it’s only just begun.
