Chennai, March 30 – The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has now cleared director Sri Senthil's highly anticipated investigative thriller, 'Kaalidas 2', featuring actor Bharath in the lead role, for release with a U/A certificate.
The makers of the film posted a poster on their social media accounts to confirm the development. Sharing the poster, which stated that the film had been cleared by the censor board, they wrote, "#Kaalidas2 – U/A Certified. Get ready for a wholesome theatre experience. April 3 Release."
It may be recalled that the makers had recently revealed the first look of actor Kishore as Pandya in the film.
Posting the poster on their social media timelines, the makers wrote, "#Kaalidas2 Kishore as Pandya. A fierce and ruthless presence. Intensity at its peak with every look. Raw, rugged, and unpredictable. Mystery unfolds in 7 Days!"
For those unaware, the film, which is the second installment in the superhit franchise 'Kaalidas', is being produced by Five Star K.Senthil and Dr. N. Yogeshwaran.
Written and directed by Sri Senthil, who was also the director of the immensely popular first part, 'Kaalidas 2' will have Ajay Karthi playing the lead along with Bharath.
The film will also feature a host of actors including Bhavani Sre, Sangita, Abarnathi, Ananth Nag, TM Karthik and 'Singam' Jayavel.
The film has generated significant interest among fans and film enthusiasts for several reasons. Firstly, the film is the sequel to the superhit film 'Kaalidas'. Secondly, it will mark the return of actress Sangita to the big screen after a long gap.
A teaser released by the makers a few months ago begins with Bharath, who plays a cop in the film, receiving a call for help from a woman, who is shivering with fear. She tearfully says that she is scared and literally pleads with him to come.
We then hear a voice over that asks, "Can every sin here be forgiven? But then, there is a punishment for every crime. As per law, there is some punishment. At the same time, the punishment for some crimes isn't delivered by external forces." The teaser shows that along with Bharath, Bhavani Sre also plays a cop in this film. The film has the tagline "Monster Hunt".
Sources close to the film's unit say that the second installment of the thriller will have more mystery, more danger, and delve deeper into the world of crime and justice.
On the technical front, the film has music by Sam CS and cinematography by Suresh Bala. Editing for the film is by Bhuvan Srinivasan while G Durairaj has served as its production designer.
The screenplay for the film has been written by Aravindan Anand and its art direction has been handled by 'Kaliyuga' A. Raja. The dances in the film have been choreographed by Bobby, while the stunts have been choreographed by Om Prakash.
Tapas Nayak is the audiographer for this film, the lyrics of whose songs have been penned by Mohanraj. Costumes in the film have been designed by Dorothy Jai (DJ).
