Seethakathi is one of the most anticipated films of the year. Starring Vijay Sethupathi in the lead role, the film is directed by Balaji Tharaneetharan. Incidentally, the director’s debut movie Naduvula Konjam Pakkatha Kanom featured Vijay Sethupathi in the lead role and it turned out to be a massive success.
Following this, there are huge expectations on Seethakathi. Also, Vijay Sethupathi as a septuagenarian is sure to impress his fans in a big way.
While Vijay Sethupathi will be seen as Ayya and Veteran Kumar, it has Parvathy as Kumar’s wife and Archana as Ayya’s wife. The film also has Gayathrie in the star cast with veteran director J Mahendran playing the villain.
Govind Menon is composing the tunes for this flick with Saraskanth TK wielding the camera and R Govindaraj roped in for editing. Seethakathi is being bankrolled by Sudhan Sundaram, Umesh G, Jayaram and Arun Vaidyanathan under the banner Passion Studios.
A few weeks ago, the making of Seethakathi video was released online and it went viral. While fans just can’t wait for this movie to hit the silver screens, we hear from sources that Seethakathi is slated for release on October 5. An official confirmation on this will be made in a few days, say sources.
Meanwhile, Vijay Sethupathi’s fans can expect a good line up of films from him in the near future. The star has a bunch of films in different stages of production including the Mani Ratnam directorial Chekka Chivantha Vaanam, which will be out at the theatres later this year. He also has 96 and the award-winning director Thiagarajan Kumararaja directorial Super Deluxe lined up for release this year.
Vijay Sethupathi is all set to make his acting debut in the Telugu film industry with the Chiranjeevi starrer Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy. The shooting of this biopic on the legendary freedom fighter Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy is currently on and it is scheduled for release early next year.
