Mr Local trailer: Sivakarthikeyan and Nayanthara feature in M Rajesh's upcoming Tamil comedy entertainer

Ahead of its release of 17 May, the makers of  Mr Local have unveiled the official trailer of the film. Starring Sivakarthikeyan and Nayanthara in the lead, the film seems to be an out-and-out comedy entertainer.

Beginning in Paris, the setting quickly shifts to India, where Sivakarthikeyan’s character Manohar is introduced as a budding sportsperson. Nayanthara, who plays Keerthana Vasudevan and is presumably his senior in office, is annoyed by Sivakarthikeyan’s fickle and irreverent nature. Their mutual hatred soon blossoms into love.
