Chennai, Sep 12 (NationPress) The production team behind director Sudha Kongara's much-anticipated historical film, 'Parasakthi', starring actor Sivakarthikeyan in the leading role, officially announced on Friday that the film is set to grace theaters on January 14 for Pongal next year.
Dawn Pictures, the studio behind this highly awaited film, shared a captivating video clip showcasing breathtaking visuals from the film on their social media platforms. They captioned it, "Parasak(thi) Paravattum. (Let the fire spread!) A thrilling journey through history is on the horizon! #Parasakthi in Theatres from 14th January 2026. #ParasakthiFromPongal #ParasakthiFromJan14."
Notably, the film is nearing the completion of its shooting phase. Earlier in August, it was confirmed that filming had concluded in Pollachi.
According to insiders, several critical scenes were filmed during this schedule, which commenced on July 18. However, Sivakarthikeyan joined the crew a bit later.
It is worth mentioning that the initial filming took place in Madurai, followed by a schedule in Sri Lanka, making the Pollachi shoot the third phase.
‘Parasakthi’ has generated substantial excitement among fans and cinema enthusiasts. This historical film, also featuring Atharvaa and Sreeleela, is set in the 1960s in the former state of Madras.
A teaser released by the production team indicated that the narrative unfolds at Pachaiyappa’s College in Madras, where Sivakarthikeyan is portrayed searching door to door for something significant. He emerges as a courageous leader poised to rally students in a violent protest against an oppressive system that has enforced decrees like 'Students - do not touch'. Interestingly, the teaser shows this mandate altered to 'Do not touch students'.
The teaser also reveals that Ravi Mohan's character harbors intentions to eliminate Sivakarthikeyan's character.
Parasakthi, which was initially referred to as #SK25 due to it being Sivakarthikeyan's 25th film, features music by G V Prakash and cinematography by seasoned cameraman Ravi K Chandran. The action sequences are choreographed by Supreme Sundar.
Point of View
I appreciate the anticipation surrounding 'Parasakthi'. This film not only showcases Sivakarthikeyan's versatility but also highlights significant historical themes that resonate with audiences. With a talented director like Sudha Kongara at the helm, it promises to be a cinematic experience that engages both fans and film critics alike.
