The trailer, which was released today, shows Madhavan as the father who is willing to turn into a ‘monster’ to save the life of his little son. The opening shot of the trailer sees a submerged Madhavan (aka Danny) in a bathtub, while his voiceover claims that there is no rule to saving a loved one’s life. The first five seconds perfectly sets the tone of the trailer as a pacy and dramatic thriller which, apart from dealing with familial love, will also feature a heavy-duty cat-and-mouse chase between the characters Danny Mascarenhas and Kabir Sawant (played by Amit Sadh of Kai Po Che fame).
The web series has been written and directed by Mayank Sharma, who said, “Writing and directing Breathe has been an absolutely exhilarating experience. I am proud of the content that my team and I have put together and can’t wait to share the series with the world! A unique storyline, a deep emotional insight, top technical support, supportive producers and stellar performances – we’ve gone all in with Breathe. The audience will also see Madhavan and Amit in never-before avatars and I hope the audience enjoys the show as much as we have enjoyed creating it.”
