Cobra teaser trailer review 

Cobra is directed by R Ajay Gnanamuthu, who is well kwn for his previous hits Demonte Colony and Imaikkaa digal. A.R Rahman is music composer for film and this will be Vikram and Rahman's fourth collaboration after films like Pudhiya Mannargal (1994), Raavanan (2010) and I (2015). trailer features Vikram as titular character 'Cobra' in a unique look where teaser begins with him quoting "Every problem has a mamatical solution". Cobra is regarded as a 'genius mamatician' who solves crimes using his mamatical skills in most 'casual' ways.

Vikram is seen as a maths teacher in a school for underprivileged kids where a woman, played by Srinidhi Shetty, apparently has a crush on him. teaser n goes on to show Cobra masquering different disguises to possibly eve authorities as Irfan Pathan's character, in his dashing suit, goes on chase to capture 'Cobra', as latter takes m on a mystery-solving journey around world. Irfan Pathan says "He plays with numbers, right? I'll give him more numbers to play this time!".

film promises us tension-filled action and chase sequences, shot beautifully by cinematographer Harish Kannan. final scene of teaser ends with goons beating up 'Cobra' and asking if he is ' math teacher', to which Vikram laughs hysterically. teaser gives us very little insight as to what crime Cobra is accused of, perhaps to raise curiosity of audience. Irfan Pathan does feel like he's hamming up most of his dialogues though, often with an exaggerated stiff voice screaming "WHAT HELL!'. background music of teaser is very trippy and action sequences are quite gripping, but anything more would just be left up to speculation at this point. 'Cobra' is expected to release in 2021 and will be released simultaneously in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu langus.
