A few shots later, the trailer introduces Ponni, and this time she’s being interrogated, and she confesses to have murdered 25 people. She also admits she once worked as a police constable.

Going by the visuals, this could be one of the most violent Tamil films in recent years. The film’s story follows the heart-wrenching journey of Ponni, who works as a constable and lives with her five-year-old daughter Dhana and her husband Maari, who works as a coolie in a rice mill. In one unfortunate night, she loses everything. To avenge the injustice done to her, she takes support of Sangaiyyah (Selvaraghavan), with whom she shares a bitter past.

Speaking about her role, Keerthy Suresh said in a statement, “Saani Kaayidham is a complete departure from any of my past work, I play a raw and intense character. It was my role and director Arun’s distinctive storytelling style and vision that interested me to be a part of this hard-hitting film. To top it, I had director Selvaraghavan as my co-star – couldn’t get better! I have put my heart and soul in this role.”
