MUMBAI: The trailer of “Toaster” was unveiled by its makers on Saturday, with the film’s lead actor Rajkummar Rao calling it “special” as it marks his maiden project under the production banner he runs with his wife Patralekhaa.
Rajkummar said: “This is a special one for me as it marks our first film under our production house, Kampa Film and produced by Patralekhaa. I’m truly excited to bring this story to audiences.”
The trailer of the Netflix film introduces Rajkummar as Ramakant, an endearing, no-nonsense kanjoos (miser) who believes every rupee saved is a victory. Whether it’s squeezing value out of everyday situations or refusing to let go of anything he’s spent money on, Ramakant takes thrifting to a whole new level.
So when a toaster he gifted for a wedding ends up going to waste, he sets out to retrieve it, dragging himself and everyone around him into a series of increasingly messy situations, where every attempt to set things right only makes matters worse.
