Actor Radha Ravi, who plays a pivotal role in Sarkar has revealed that Vijay plays a vigilante in the film which is being directed by AR Murugadoss.
Speaking to popular online portal Behindwoods, Radha Ravi said: “Vijay’s character in Sarkar will be like the fictional character Zorro. Vijay plays a representative of the people in Sarkar. Murugadoss has done a fantastic job with the script. The film is very high on heroism.”
Following the commercial success of Thuppakki and Kaththi, actor Vijay and filmmaker AR Murugadoss have teamed up for the third time in upcoming political action-thriller Sarkar. The film’s first look and title were revealed on the occasion of Vijay’s birthday on June 22.
The title and the first poster were released on the eve of his birthday on June 21, two more posters were released the next day as a birthday gift to his fans. The project was wrapped up earlier this month and the makers are currently busy with the post-production process.
In the past, Vijay has essayed vigilante-type of roles in films such as Velayudham and Mersal. There are also rumours that the film stars Vijay as a US-returned character who vows to bring about change in his society.
Keerthy Suresh has rejoined hands with Vijay after last year’s Bairavaa. The film also stars Prem Kumar and Yogi Babu. Sarkar is definitely hitting the screens this Diwali.
The film has music by AR Rahman and this project marks his reunion with Murugadoss after the Hindi version of Ghajini. Girish Gangadharan, the young lensman whose recent work includes Kali and Solo, is cranking the camera.
National award-winning editor Sreekar Prasad, who has worked with Murugadoss in projects such as Thuppakki and Spyder, is also part of the film. All eyes are on Sarkar as the combination of Vijay and Murugadoss has set the bar very high. Two of Vijay's best films in recent years have come from Murugadoss and it naturally has built high anticipation around their next project.
