Giving out the vibe of the Hollywood hit Don’t Breathe, as per the trailer, Nayanthara, who is visually impaired, witnesses a murder case the police department is investigating. Ajmal Ameer plays the antagonist in the film and he is targeting young women in Chennai city.

The trailer shows intriguing high-octane action and drama playing out between both the characters. As per reports, Netrikann is loosely inspired by the Korean thriller Blind which tells the story of a visually impaired woman who testifies for a hit-and-run case.

Going by the visuals, Nayanthara crosses paths with the serial killer and the rest of the story is about their encounter where he underestimates her ability to defend herself due to her visual impairment but the film is certainly centred around a "unique and resilient woman" who fights back.

She uses her "senses to the best of her abilities to track down a serial killer", said Shivan, who called Milind Rau, the “Picasso” of thriller movies. Will she be able to uncover the hidden truths? That can only be revealed on August 13 when the film gets an OTT release.
