Actor Vikram has teamed up with filmmaker SU Arun Kumar for his next, tentatively called Chiyaan 62
Actor Vikram’s next, tentatively called Chiyaan 62, will be helmed by filmmaker SU Arun Kumar (Pannaiyarum Padminiyum, Sethupathy,Chithha). The film will have music scored by GV Prakash Kumar, his fourth with Vikram after Deiva Thirumagal, Thaandavam and the upcoming Thangalaan.
The film was announced on Saturday with a video posted by the film’s production banner, HR Pictures. The three-minute-long video shows a scene set at a police station in Thiruttani. Just moments after we see a woman rush into the station to register a complaint, two men whom the woman points out as the accused are beaten up and thrown into the station by a myserious man (Vikram).
None of the cops seem to know who he is, but before he leaves, he whispers something in the ears of a guard. “We can chat about this later. You know where to find me. Kalaivani Enterprises, North Street, Thiruttani 631 209,” he informs as he makes his way out.
Chiyaan 62 is produced by Riya Shibu under the HR Pictures production banner. Director Arun Kumar is currently in the limelight for his critically-acclaimed film Chithha, starring Siddharth.
Meanwhile, Vikram has Gautham Vasudev Menon’s Dhruva Natchathiram and Pa Ranjith’s Thangalaangearing up for release.

Pakistan coach Gary Kirsten stated that “not so great decision making” contributed to his side’s defeat to India in the Group-A T20 World Cup clash here on Sunday. The batting unit came apart in the chase, after being well placed at 72 for two. With 48 runs needed from eight overs, Pakistan found a way to panic and lose. “Maybe not so great decision making,” Kirsten said at the post-match press conference, when asked to explain the loss.
