Director Karthik Subbaraj impressed Vikram and Dhruv with the story of Mahaan and brought them together for the first time in a film. Also, Mahaan marks the 60th film of Chiyaan Vikram in his career.
In a statement, Vikram said, “Mahaan will have the audiences hooked throughout with its perfect blend of action and drama, balanced by intense emotions. My character in the movie has multiple shades and it was very interesting to transition from one emotion to another as the story progressed. It is, of course, also an extra special film for me one, as I reach a milestone in my cinematic journey with this being my 60th film, and secondly, as my son Dhruv Vikram is playing my reel-life son in it. He has worked very hard for this role, and I am very proud of him. Also working with a director as talented as Kartik Subbaraj, who has this exact vision for what he wants as an end result, is always a pleasure. I am delighted that Mahaan is launching on Prime Video and that it will reach viewers across the globe, starting 10 February.
Dhruv said, "Mahaan is very special to me as this is the first time I am getting to share screen space with my father and that too in a role portraying his son. He is a very talented man with an excellent understanding of the craft and I have so much to learn from him."
