Vikram, directed by Kamal Haasan, also stars Vijay Sethupathi, Fahadh Faasil, and Suriya. Lokesh Kanagaraj directed the film, which will be released on June 3rd.
To the joy of his ardent fans, veteran actor Kamal Haasan presented the first look poster for his next film Vikram, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, on Saturday. He appears opposite Vijay Sethupathi and Malayalam actor Fahadh Faasil, who rose to prominence thanks to his roles in Tamil films like Velaikkaran and Super Deluxe. Here's all you need to know about the mega-event.
The plot of Vikram's film is yet unknown, but the teaser, which was released a while ago, implies that it would be a thriller with mass aspects. Furthermore, the film may have a 'food sequence' similar to Kanagaraj's Diwali blockbuster Kaithi.
There's also a chance that Vikram will have a significant message, as Hassan, the star of films like Saagar and Hey Ram, has long been associated with intelligent filmmaking.
Fahadh is said to play a crooked cop who aids criminals in their escape, and is expected to have some dramatic scenes with Haasan. VJS had previously given a strong performance in Kanagaraj's Master, which also starred 'Thalapathy' Vijay and Malavika MohanMohanan. It will be interesting to see if the two can deliver the goods in Vikram.
Vikram's action sequences have lately enlisted the help of stunt directors Anbu-Arivu. With their work on the Sandalwood film KGF, starring Yash, the pair gained notoriety.
The Prashanth Neel-directed movie hit all the right notes, with the massive action sequences standing out. Given their track record, one may anticipate equally captivating scenes for Vikram.
The film was supposed to start shooting a long time ago, but due to the epidemic and Haasan's political aspirations, it never did. It's only a matter of time before the shoot begins now that things are slowly returning to normal.
On the job front, Haasan is going through a hard patch; his most recent major movie, Vishwaroopam 2 (Vishwaroop 2 in Hindi), fell short of expectations. When Indian 2 hit production snags before being placed on hold owing to Covid-19 limits, he suffered yet another setback. Vikram is thought to be able to assist him reclaim his lost mojo, as Kanagaraj is regarded as a bankable filmmaker after delivering consecutive hits with Kaithi and Master.
