    Not much else is known about the plot of the movie however actor Prithviraj did reveal that the core of the movie is the relationship between a father and son, and now that we finally have a trailer for the movie lets see what we can expect from Nine.

    The Trailer starts with a birthday celebration for Albi who is Prithviraj's son in the movie and Prithviraj plays a scientist named Albert. Albi appears to be upset since the death of his mother and the loss has put a strain on the relationship between father and son.

    Albert receives advice from a group of Buddist monks who tell him to protect the boy for the next 9 days until the comet passes, this scene reminds me of Yodha the iconic Malayalam movie, where Mohanlal is tasked with protecting a small boy from an evil cult.

    The Trailer for Nine is impressive and manages to create anticipation for the movie which releases next month on the 9th, the plot of the movie appears similar in some ways to the 1992 movie Yodha but with added horror and science fiction elements this makes me even more curious to actually seen the movie when it hits theaters.
