The thrill of 'Thodaram' will surprise you
Thodaram is a suspense crime thriller, directed by Tharun Murthy. After creating a stir in theatres with Mohanlal's brilliant acting and a tremendous story, this film is now going to rock OTT as well. The film has been dubbed in Tamil and has also been named Thodaram, which will be released on May 9, 2025. Mohanlal has officially confirmed this on his social media. The film performed brilliantly at the box office in Malayalam and is now set to make its mark among Tamil audiences as well.
What is the story of the film?
The story of the film revolves around a simple taxi driver, Shanmughan (Mohanlal), fondly known as 'Benz'. He lives in a small hill town in Pathanamthitta and loves his old black Ambassador car very much. But one day, his car mysteriously disappears and Benz puts his life at stake to find it. The first half of the film shows this journey, where Benz tries to get his car back from the police. In the second part, the story takes a new turn when Benz plans to take revenge on CI George and SI Benny for killing his son Pavi.
