Aayirathil Iruvar is an upcoming Tamil film written, directed and produced by Saran. The film features Vinay in dual lead roles and three newcomers, Samuthrika, Swasthika and Kesha Khambhati, as the female leads, while the director's regular composer Bharathwaj scores the music. The film was shot primarily in Thirunelveli while filming took also place in Hyderabad, Bangkok and Dubai.[1] The film was said to be dealing with money laundering and hawala.[1] The film scheduled to release in 2016.

Cast

Production

In September 2012, it was first reported that Saran had stopped working on the pre-production of Aal, Ambu, Senai, a venture featuring Vishal and chosen to work on a script titled Senthatti Kaalai Sevatha Kaalai with Vinay in the lead role.[2] The film was announced to be jointly produced by Vikram Raju for Vega Entertainment and Saran who would also work on the story, screenplay and direction. Bharathwaj, a regular in Saran's projects, was signed on to compose the music while three new girls called Samuthrika, Kadambari Jethwani and Shilpi Verma were signed on to play pivotal roles.[3]

Production began in December 2012 in Thirunelveli, and posters from a photo shoot featuring Vinay in dual roles were released later in February 2013.[4] Bharadwaj noted the film was a musical, revealing he had composed six songs of usual length plus fifteen more of about thirty seconds length for scenes.[5] However the film ran into troubles in 2013 and filming was postponed for the remainder of the year. The team re-emerged and began production again in early January 2014, with Saran announcing that new actresses Swasthika and Kesha were also being introduced, in place of a couple of actresses who had been revealed earlier.[6] In a press meet closer to the film's release, Saran announced that he had renamed two of the three female lead to avoid confusion with existing artistes. Hindi actress Sakshi Chaudhary became Samuthrika for Tamil films after impressing Saran at an audition, while Surabhi became Swasthika after Saran was impressed by a photograph. Supporting actress Rethika Srinivas, previously seen in Vazhakku Enn 18/9 (2012) and Nimirndhu Nil (2014), revealed that she would play a village character pitted against the two characters played by Vinay. She also revealed that the film's title had been changed to Aayirathil Iruvar and the team subsequently shot scenes in Tirunelveli.[7][8] Besides Rethika, Sana and Kaajal Pasupathi were reported to play important roles.[1]

Soundtrack

The music is composed by Bharathwaj while the lyrics were written by Vairamuthu and his son Kabilan Vairamuthu.
