Viacom18 Motion Pictures has joined hands with one of the leading South Indian film production houses, Seven Screen Studios, to bankroll an upcoming action thriller film. The project will be made in Tamil.
Tentatively titled Vikram 58, the film will be shot on a huge scale. Hit filmmaker R. Ajay Gnanamuthu, who recently delivered the massive blockbuster Imaikkaa Nodigal (2019), has come onboard to direct the forthcoming film.
The movie will have southern superstar Chiyaan Vikram fronting the cast. It will be a high-octane action thriller that will have everything to keep the audience on the edge of their seats. The film is said to be a mass entertainer with pan-India appeal.
“This film will be a pan-Indian project catering to the Tamil, Hindi and Telugu audience. It will be produced on a massive scale in association with Viacom 18 Motion Pictures. The cast and technicians will have big names of all industries collaborating for this film,” read a statement from the makers.
Vikram 58 is set to hit the floors in August and is expected to enter theatres in April 2020.
