The crime thriller stars Keerthy as a pregnant mother who sets out on a dangerous and physically demanding journey to unravel a mystery from her past and save her loved ones.
“Penguin has definitely been one of the most exciting and interesting projects I’ve worked on,” said Keerthy.
“As a mother, my character is both gentle and caring, but also fiercely determined. She’s complex, but authentic, and I think that will really strike a chord with audiences. I had a wonderful time working with the incredibly talented Eashvar Karthic to bring the story to life. It will be great to see a film in Tamil, Telugu that will be appreciated by audiences around the world,” she added.
