Recently, the filmmakers had revealed the plot of the film and that it would be based in the 8th century AD. It was also said that the film is about a woman and her ordeals in life, which is aimed to spotlight not just the Tamil Film Industry, but also to highlight the rich history of one of the oldest languages in the world.

Also read | What is Sangamithra? As the film gets a Cannes 2017 presence, can the Shruti Haasan-starrer be the next Baahubali?

This will be the first time that actors Jayam Ravi and Arya will be working together. In fact, this will also be the first time that Shruti Haasan will be seen sharing screen space with either of the actors. Shruti has also been training really hard in physical combat, and sword fighting to prepare for the role in this movie. After the release of the poster, fans also wonder at the extent to which visual effects will be used in the film, and also if it will follow the path of superstar Rajinikanth’s film, Kochadaiiyaan.
