The movie’s lead protagonist, Tamilarasan (Vijay Antony) is a cop of the bleeding-heart kind. He and his loving wife Leena (Ramya Nambeesan) receive the shock of their lives when they learn that their son Prabhakar (Pranav Mohan) has a weak heart and the sooner they go for a transplant the better. They get him admitted to a hospital, which, unfortunately, cares more about profits and is filled with cold-blooded administrators and stone-hearted doctors. With a minister, too, in need of a heart, Prabhakar becomes low priority for the hospital. An enraged Tamilarasan decides to take their heart specialist Dr Muruganantham (Suresh Gopi) hostage and force them to treat his son first. Can he save his son, especially with his corrupt superior Rana Pratap Singh (Sonu Sood)), a man who already has a bone to pick with him, trying to put him down?
Tamilarasan has music composed by Ilaiyaraaja, cinematography by RD Rajasekhar and direction by Babu Yogeswaran. The film also stars Chaya Singh, Sangeetha Krish, Yogi Babu, Pandiarajan, Kasthuri, Munishkanth, Robo Shankar and marks the debut of Pranav, the son of director Mohan Raja. After its theatrical release in April, Tamilarasan is gearing for its World Digital Premiere on ZEE5 on 16th June 2023.
Director Babu Yogeswaran said, “It was a great experience working with Vijay Antony and the extended cast of Tamilarasan. They believed in my vision and gave it their all. We have made the film with a lot of heart, and I hope that it reaches the global audience via the World Digital Premiere on ZEE5”.
Actor Vijay Antony said, “I agreed to be a part of this film as I believed in the director’s vision. ‘Tamilarasan’ incorporates scenes that almost mirror the society at large which is terrorising, and I hoped that this film succeeds in delivering a strong message. While it released in theatres, there are still many who haven’t heard about this film or watched it. It is my sincere request to them to watch it on ZEE5 on 16th June as Tamilarasan is an important story that everyone must watch”.
