Katrina Kaif commences reading sessions for her next with director Sriram Raghavan

Last seen in Bharat (2019) opposite Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif has signed some interesting projects ever since the coronavirus pandemic began. While she has almost wrapped up Excel Entertainment’s horror-comedy Phone Bhoot, the actress will soon resume filming Yash Raj Films’ Tiger 3 with Salman Khan.

Additionally, she has also signed a film with Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment and a superhero franchise film that Ali Abbas Zafar is set to direct for the leading streaming media giant Netflix.


Kaif has also notched up a plum role in acclaimed filmmaker Sriram Raghavan’s next film which will see her share the screen space with supremely talented Tamil superstar Vijay Sethupathi.

The latest update on the forthcoming project suggests that Kaif has begun preparing for her role in the same. She has started attending reading sessions with actors and the captain of the ship.

According to reports, Kaif wants to prepare for this film before she begins filming Tiger 3. It is only after wrapping up the Maneesh Sharma directorial that she will move on to shoot her film with Sriram Raghavan. From what we hear, Raghavan is planning to finish the whole film in a start-to-finish 30-day schedule.

The audience is really looking forward to seeing the unusual pairing of Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi in the upcoming film. Though Sethupathi is a force to reckon with in Tamil cinema, he is also quite popular among Hindi audiences as the dubbed versions of some of his Tamil films have done really well on satellite.

Sethupathi will be making his Bollywood debut with Santosh Sivan’s Mumbaikar, co-starring Vikrant Massey. It is the remake of Lokesh Kanagaraj’s 2017 Tamil action thriller Maanagaram, according to reports.

'Akka' review: Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte’s battle exposes an uncomfortable truth about power

Highlights

  • Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte lead Netflix's five-episode crime drama set in a fictional south Indian region ruled by an 800-year-old sisterhood.
  • The series explores whether women in positions of absolute power can avoid reproducing the oppressive systems traditionally associated with patriarchy.
  • Strong performances, sharp dialogue and stylised storytelling make Akka engaging, although its political ideas are not always fully explored.

What happens when women take control of a world traditionally dominated by men? Does changing the gender of those in power automatically create a fairer society? Netflix's Akka, led by Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte, explores these uncomfortable questions through a violent crime saga built around an 800-year-old sisterhood.

Set in the fictional south Indian region of Perunuru, the five-episode series follows a powerful matriarchal community that controls the criminal underworld and the lucrative gold and illicit liquor trades. While its premise offers an interesting reversal of conventional crime dramas, the story gradually reveals that replacing male rulers with women does not necessarily dismantle the systems of oppression they inherit.
