Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
A remake of the Telugu smash 'Vikramarkudu' (2006), this launched director Siva's career and established Karthi as a viable mass hero after his art-house debut.
The 'cop who doesn't know he's a cop' trope became a template for Tamil cinema after this film's success, influencing a decade of masala remakes.
