Chennai, March 25

After having disclosed the character names of Mamitha Baiju and director K S Ravikumar in director Vignesh Raja's upcoming action entertainer 'Kara', featuring actor Dhanush in the lead, the makers of the film on Wednesday disclosed that Malayalam actor Suraj Venjaramoodu would be seen as a cop called Bharathan in their film.

Taking to its X timeline, Vels Film International, the production house producing the film, wrote, "BHARATHAN... on duty. Next drop today at 5 PM. #FacesOfKara. #KaraFromApril30. Directed by @vigneshraja89.Produced by @IshariKGanesh.A @gvprakash musical."

The makers also released the first look poster of the actor in the film on the occasion.

On Tuesday, the makers had disclosed that actress Mamitha Baiju, who played the female lead in the film, would be seen as Selli in the film. They also shared that director K S Ravikumar would be seen as Kandhasaami in 'Kara'.

It may be recalled that the makers of the film had announced the title of the film on Pongal this year. The makers had also released a poster of the film in which Dhanush was seen sporting an intense look. The poster read, "Sometimes, staying dangerous is the only way to stay alive."

Director Vignesh Raja, on his X timeline, had said, "D54 is Kara. An emotionally rooted suspense thriller. We are coming this summer. #D54 is #Kara. #HappyPongal #HappySankranti. Directed by @vigneshraja89. Produced by @IshariKGanesh. A @gvprakash musical."

The makers had, sometime ago, released a still of Dhanush from the film. The production house had shared the picture on social media, saying, "Straight from the sets of #D54 - Shoot in progress! @dhanushkraja". The picture showed Dhanush speaking from an STD booth.

The film boasts of both a strong cast as well as a brilliant technical crew.

Apart from Dhanush and Mamitha Baiju, the film will also feature director K S Ravikumar, Jayaram, Suraj Venjaramoodu, Karunas and Prithvi Pandiraj in pivotal roles.

On the technical front, cinematography will be by one of the best in the business, Theni Eswar and editing will be by Sreejith Sarang. Music will be by National Award winner G V Prakash.

More significantly, the story of the film has been jointly penned by writer Alfred Prakash and director Vignesh Raja, the creators of the critically acclaimed superhit investigative thriller 'Por Thozhil'.

Writer Alfred Prakash, who has been good friends with director Vignesh Raja, had in an earlier interview disclosed that both Vignesh and he understood each other very well.

The writers, who had taken four years to come up with the final version of 'Por Thozil', nurture the belief that it is better when two people write a story together as each writer can use the other as a sounding board to test one's ideas.

Suraj sir as a cop named Bharathan is perfect casting. He brings so much depth to any role. The technical team looks solid too - Theni Eswar's cinematography and G.V. Prakash's music. April 30th can't come soon enough!

Interesting to see the pan-Indian cast coming together. Dhanush is a phenomenal actor, and the fact that the writers of Por Thozhil are behind this gives me confidence. The tagline is quite intense as well.

The team looks promising, but I hope the story is fresh. Sometimes, after a superhit like Por Thozhil, there's pressure to replicate the formula. Fingers crossed for an original, emotionally rooted thriller as promised.

Dhanush in an STD booth in a still? That's a throwback! Gives a very raw, realistic vibe. The combination of talent from Malayalam and Tamil industries is what Indian cinema needs more of. All the best to the team!

KS Ravikumar as Kandhasaami and Suraj as Bharathan... supporting cast is stellar. Hope the female lead Mamitha Baiju gets a substantial role and isn't just there for glamour. The makers have built good hype, now hoping for a paisa vasool film!
