Karthi who was last seen in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Kaithi awaits the release of Sulthan, allegedly the biggest release of his career. The actor recently announced that he has started dubbing for this project and it is rumoured to release for Pongal next year. If this turns out to be true, Sulthan may clash with Vijay’s most-awaited Lokesh Kanagaraj directorial Master. Interestingly, Karthi’s Kaithi and Vijay’s Bigil with director Atlee had released on the same date, during Deepavali 2019. If this Pongal 2021 schedule turns out to be true, the two actors might once again see each other contending at the Kollywood box office.
Sulthan has been directed by Bakkiyaraj Kannan, who made his directorial debut with Sivakarthikeyan-starrer Remo. Actor Rashmika Mandanna will be making her Tamil debut with this film that has been produced by Dream Warrior Pictures.
