The official announcement on the release date was made this morning (August 26) and it has made the fans look forward to the project. The interesting aspect about April 14 is that the highly awaited pan Indian film, KGF: Chapter 2 is also set to release on the same day and it looks like an exciting box office clash is on cards.

Apart from directing, Kathiresan has also produced Rudhran under his banner of Five Star Creations LLP. The film has music composed by GV Prakash Kumar who is in supreme form with the success of movies like Asuran and Soorarai Pottru. Rudhran will feature the young and happening Priya Bhavani Shankar as the female lead and this film will mark her first outing with Raghava Lawrence. It is going to be quite interesting to see how the pairing of Raghava Lawrence and Priya Bhavani Shankar works among the audience.
