Sivakarthikeyan’s work front
Sivakarthikeyan was last seen in a lead role in Parasakthi. Directed by Sudha Kongara, the period action drama also starred Ravi Mohan, Sreeleela, and Atharvaa Murali.
The film is set in 1960s Tamil Nadu and follows Chezhaiyan, a peace-loving railway worker and the sole provider for his family, who takes care of his activist younger brother, Chinna Durai. As civil unrest intensifies, Chinna fights against systemic oppression despite Chezhaiyan’s disapproval.
When a brutal police officer, Thirunaadan, escalates the crackdown, a life-altering event forces Chezhaiyan to transform and join the protests. The film centers on his evolution, his bond with his brother, and the struggles they face.
Parasakthi is currently available for streaming on ZEE5.
