Actor Sivakarthikeyan made his entry into the top league of Tamil cinema in quick time with the star currently attached to as many as 5 big upcoming films in various stages of development. One among them is Hero, being billed to be an action drama under Irumbu Thirai fame PS Mithran’s direction. Being produced by KJR Studios with music by Yuvan Shankar Raja, the film’s producer Kotapadi J Rajesh, the man behind ventures like Aramm, Gulaebaghavali and Airaa, has now in an official press statement spoken about the decision to get it out in theatres on as a Christmas holidays release this year on December 20 saying, “Coming up with a big budgeted movie that is packaged with a uniquely amazing story and treatment along with huge star-cast and technicians needs its own time to get an absolute shape. We as a team are taking scrutinizing efforts in bringing the best in this aspect. Personally, I have strongly believed in the theory of ‘RIGHT THING AT THE RIGHT TIME’ and so felt that Hero will be a perfect treat for the long Christmas and year-end holidays,”.
Kotapadi J Rajesh then spoke about Sivakarthikeyan, the additional cast and the story of Hero saying, “Sivakarthikeyan itself is a bigger brand that eventually retains a healthy situation in theatres as kids-to-adults cherry pick his movies. Hero happens to be a special venture for me as I am associated with some of the industry’s big names. To have iconic actors like 'Action King' Arjun sir and Abhay Deol onboard is a bigger boon for me. A film can be produced in grandeur, but to get such a versatile team is a phenomenal thing. If the star-cast looks like a spectacular trait, the technical team is yet another pillar. PS Mithran’s unparalleled storytelling and filmmaking paradigm in Irumbu Thirai impressed me a lot. Much prior to our initial meeting of script session, I had presumed that he might come up with a similar themed tale, but to my surprise Hero was entirely different and fresh in its premise. The characters he mentioned were astounding and now to have such brilliant actors playing them leaves me literally excited to see the final product. Kalyani Priyadarshan has already etched up a greater stature in South Industry and she has something greater to score herein Hero,”.
