Puli

In a myth‑steeped realm where dense jungles cradle a proud tribal settlement, a half‑human, half‑tiger warrior rises to become its guardian. Marudheeran, known among his people as the “Puli” or “Magadheera,” bears the fierce legacy of a tiger‑demon while living among humans, granting him both extraordinary strength and a restless inner duality. The village clings to tradition and camaraderie, its daily rhythm punctuated by whispered legends of ancient sorcery and the ever‑present threat of a neighboring kingdom that wields dark, otherworldly power.

The neighboring realm is ruled by a formidable queen whose presence casts a shadow over the land, aided by a cunning marshal who enforces her will with an iron fist. Their rule has turned the border into a place of uneasy tension, where the clash of cultures and the pull of destiny create an atmosphere thick with anticipation. Within this charged setting, Vembunathan, the village chief, serves as a steadying mentor, while Pavalamalli, a spirited young woman, offers a bond that fuels the warrior’s resolve. Their relationships weave a tapestry of loyalty, love, and the yearning for a brighter future beyond oppression.

As Marudheeran embraces his dual nature, the film unfolds with sweeping vistas, visceral combat, and an enchanting blend of folklore and martial prowess. The tone balances the gritty determination of a soldier sworn to protect his people with the ethereal wonder of ancient rituals and hidden lineages. Against a backdrop of looming conflict, the story invites viewers to wonder whether virtue and sacrifice can indeed tip the scales against tyranny, setting the stage for an epic struggle between light and shadow.
