'Merry Christmas' seamlessly blends romance, crime, and suspense in a bilingual format.

Director Sriram Raghavan shared his insights about Merry Christmas.

He adds, "There's a crime involved, of course, but sometimes one can live a lifetime in one night. The different trailers for the Hindi and Tamil versions have evoked interesting speculations about the film. We have taken a slow burn approach, there's anticipation and suspense, but the twists and turns are quieter, even stealthier. The viewer has to invest in the characters played by Katrina and Vijay to really enjoy the pay-off.”

The Hindi rendition boasts a stellar ensemble cast, featuring Sanjay Kapoor, Vinay Pathak, Pratima Kannan, and Tinnu Anand. On the other hand, the Tamil version showcases talents like Radhika Sarathkumar, Shanmugaraja, Kavin Jay Babu, and Rajesh Williams. Radhika Apte and Ashwini Kalsekar make special cameo appearances in both language versions.

In its inaugural collaboration between Tips Films and Matchbox Pictures, 'Merry Christmas,' produced by Ramesh Taurani, Sanjay Routray, Jaya Taurani, and Kewal Garg, commits to delivering top-tier entertainment.
