Sivakasi

Cast: Vijay, Asin, Geetha
Director: Perarasu.

Only a few days to go for Diwali and Eid, and firework stores have sprung up around Chennai. Posters advertising the fireworks have also sprung up, all featuring actors on them. Which is not surprising. After all, the small town Sivakasi in Tamil Nadu is synonymous with fireworks. It is from here that they are sent across India.

Sivakasi is also the title of the biggest Diwali/ Eid release this year.

Makes sense, then, that the film's hero Vijay adorns all cracker wrappers and posters in Tamil Nadu.

Vijay hopes to score a hat trick. The Vijay-Perarasu (director) combination created fireworks before, with Thirupatchi. If that film had the brother-sister sentiment, Sivakasi tries to work on the mother-son angle.

Design: Uday Kuckian
