Suriya to produce Uriyadi sequel!
Actor Suriya’s production house 2D Entertainment Pvt Ltd is known for backing quality films like 36 Vayadhinile, Pasanga 2 and the recent hit, Kadaikutty Singam. Their next is the sequel to the acclaimed film, Uriyadi. Vijay Kumar who directed and played the lead in the first part is helming the sequel as well. The movie is all set to go on floors from tomorrow.
Uriyadi, which was released in 2016, is a riveting political thriller that had a bunch of newcomers in the lead roles. Though the movie failed to reap success at the box office, it garnered widespread critical acclaim. Uriyadi discussed about the horrifying caste politics that is still prevalent in many rural parts of Tamil Nadu. Critics appreciated the movie for its take on a bold subject and the performances of the rookie cast.
Just like the first part, Uriyadi 2 will also have a very strong social message as part of its narrative. It is said that the sequel is a stand-alone film and not a continuation of the first part. Vijay Kumar, Kerala based debutant actress Vismaya and Madras Central fame Sudhakar are playing the major roles. ‘Thaikkudam Bridge’ fame Govind Vasantha, who is getting rave response for his album ’96’, is the music director.
