The trailer of Bison, which had previously been so anticipated, has finally been released, and it is what the fans had been expecting, which is, intense, emotional, and highly grounded in reality. Under the direction of Mari Selvaraj and the star of Dhruv Vikram and Anupama Parameswaran, the movie promises to be one of the strongest movie experiences of 2025.
The trailer has already gone viral among Tamil and Telugu audiences, promising a fascinating sports drama constructed around kabaddi. But, as is always the case with Mari Selvaraj, there is a lot more than meets the eye. Bison is a tale of power, identity, and the boldness to stand up against all odds.
The Bison trailer begins with a down-to-earth, dusty, and emotional rustic location. A young man is shown working hard in the hot sun and stretching his boundaries to become a kabaddi player. Each frame is an explosion of intensity, the sound of his breath, the bang of the earth, the beat of his movements, all of them combined with a strong background score by Nivas K. Prasanna.
However, it is not merely a sports movie. The trailer suggests more emotional undertones, caste issues, social wrongfulness, and self-recovery. We get glimpses of suffering, opposition, and defiance. Each look, each face-off is significant.
The typical Mari Selvaraj style of storytelling is present in this story, as he creates the characters that reflect an actual individual, his or her struggle without saying anything, and the wish to escape.
Dhruv Vikram, the son of the most experienced actor Chiyaan Vikram, has been entirely transformed to look stunning in this role. There is nothing in Bison that does not scream commitment when it comes to his physique or even his expressions.
Dhruv has described the project as life-changing in his interviews by explaining that it was an opportunity to reexamine the self as an actor. He does not even appear as himself in this role, like in the prior ones, where he is fully absorbed by the character of a young man of a marginalized origin who resorts to kabaddi as his defensive and self-affirmative tool.
The trailer presents Dhruv in cases of weakness and strength. His performance is real and heartfelt whether he is silently taking humiliation or viciously attacking on the kabaddi court.
It is not only physical change, but it is also emotional. His look is painful and his gestures are intentional, and his silence speaks volumes.
All the Mari Selvaraj films have a heavy social voice. Nevertheless, his films have never ceased being a mix of art and activism, as in the case of Pariyerum Perumal, Karnan, and Maamannan. It appears that Bison is still on that path, and his tale of pride, oppression, and perseverance is narrated through the world of kabaddi.
Mari Selvaraj is not scared to reveal unpleasant realities. His direction is personal; he does not make heroes out of fantasy, but out of people who get up even when being shattered.
Nivas K. Prasanna has provided a background score that intensifies all the feelings in the trailer. His music fades out and fades in, and this is the inner struggle of the hero.
The songs published to date – with their lyrical poetry and old-fashioned rhythms – reflect the agony and the pride of the narrative. Nivas also adds his own version of grittiness and rhythm that perfectly contrasts with the visual narration of Mari Selvar.
The soundtrack by Expect Bison is likely to be one of the strongest points in the movie, as it will contribute heart and heat to the emotional scenes.
The images of Bison are breathtaking. The photography of the film reflects both the beauty and the roughness of life in the countryside. The kabaddi courts are dusty, the golden sun is shining, the village streets are narrow, and all this makes everything look real and lived in.
The movement of the camera is raw. Action scenes are not rehearsed. The visual narration has a feel and a sound. 56, we can even touch the sweat, the land, the struggle.
The color scheme remains natural and earthy, which highlights the naturalism Mari Selvaraj is known to have.
1. Struggle and Survival
Fundamentally, Bison is survival. It is the story of a man who does not want to be shattered by the surrounding world. Via kabaddi, he gets not only a profession but it is also a motivation to fight back – to show the world that he is worthy of something in the society that attempts to suppress him.
2. Caste and Identity
Mari Selvaraj does not hesitate to write about social hierarchies. Bison seems to venture into the issue of caste discrimination in a minor but effective way, demonstrating how injustice in the system forms the way people live.
The struggle by the hero is not on the kabaddi court, but generations of oppression.
3. Hope and Redemption
The trailer does not lack hope, even though it is so serious. It is not only a journey of pain, but the main character also undergoes it. He gets to know how to regain his pride, name, and fate.
It is that emotional twist, the one of victim to victor, that causes Bison to be a very human tale.
The marriage between Dhruv Vikram and Mari Selvaraj is like fate. Mari is an author whose narration style is based on authenticity, and Dhruv plays along with its force. The two have created a character that is mythical and real.
This is the actual debut of Dhruv, according to fans, the part that will make him a star. His physical transformation, all the way to the grounded performance, leads to a breakout moment.
Bison will be released this Diwali, and the expectation is very high. The trailer has already caused enormous talk on the internet, with the audience commending the emotional touch, visuals, and music.
To the lovers of meaningful cinema, Bison has more than entertainment to offer, and it is a movie that reaches the heart.
A mix of intense direction, solid acting, and an eye-catching appearance would make Bison quite an easy topic in conversation and perhaps one of the most discussed Indian movies of the year.
It is a different experience when one hears the songs of Gurmeet Singh Maan. These are all the notes burdened with memory. His rich, emotional voice takes us back to the days when music was innocent, heartfelt, and soul-touching.
He is remembered by fans who still play his songs on YouTube as well as music sites. To a considerable number of people, his voice is comforting as a reminder of their origins, their families, and their native land.
Although he has passed on, Gurmeet Singh Maan will never die with his melodies. His music will resound in villages, towns, and all over the world, wherever the Punjabi hearts will throb.
The Punjabi music industry is mourning the death of Gurmeet Singh Maan. His work will not be forgotten, though. His songs, humility, and commitment will remain inspirational.
Punjab has lost one of the purest voices, yet heaven has acquired a soulful singer. His experience teaches us that great art will never die; it is always alive in all the hearts that listen to it.
