The film is a large-scale period drama, which not only boasts a compelling storyline but also features an impressive and diverse ensemble cast.
Sivakarthikeyan’s collaboration with National Award-winning director Sudha Kongara is one of the key highlights of SK25. The actor spoke highly of Kongara’s dedication and precision in filmmaking. “Sudha Kongara is meticulous, she prepares everything, so we won’t have any questions. We will just go ask, and she will say she is okay. She is always on high energy. We are shooting in many locations, and I am excited about this film.” This shows the level of preparation and energy the team brings to the project, which will likely result in a gripping cinematic experience. Kongara’s previous work has been praised for its clarity and emotional depth, and Sivakarthikeyan’s positive comments indicate that SK25 will be no different.
In addition to Sudha Kongara’s directorial expertise, the film features actor Jayam Ravi, who will be playing a significant antagonist role. Sivakarthikeyan was thrilled to discuss his dynamic with Jayam Ravi, sharing, “The exciting part is working with Jayam Ravi. I shouldn’t call him a villain, but he is playing that antagonist character. And I was very happy when he said yes to it. It’s a very, very strong character. We are going to fight with each other. I am very excited.” This rivalry between the two actors promises to create an intense on-screen battle, and fans are eagerly anticipating how their performances will complement each other.
The ensemble cast also includes Sreeleela and Atharva, whose roles are expected to add depth to the narrative. As for the technical aspects, GV Prakash Kumar will compose the music, ensuring a rich auditory experience to accompany the film’s visually stunning cinematography by the legendary Ravi K Chandran. With such a talented team behind the camera, SK25 is sure to be a grand visual spectacle that showcases both the historical and emotional stakes of the story.
Fans are particularly excited because SK25 is a period drama, which adds a unique dimension to Sivakarthikeyan’s filmography.
