Vijay Sethupathi’s ‘Train’ Gets U/A Certificate, August Release on Track

Vijay Sethupathi-starrer 'Train' cleared for release with U/A certificate

Chennai, Aug 13

Producer Kalaippuli S Thanu, whose production house V Creations is producing the film, took to his social media timelines to drop the update.

Thanu wrote, "Train censored U/A." It may be recalled that the producer had, at the teaser launch event of the film, confirmed that the film would release in August this year.

At the teaser launch event of the film, Thanu had said, "Let us do it this August" during the course of his speech.

His announcement had got director Mysskin thrilled. Mysskin, in a lighter vein, had even tried to get the producer commit to a release date.

"Oh my God, is that so sir? Please announce the date as well," he had said in an excited tone.

When the producer smiled and refrained from announcing a date, he pretended as if the producer had announced August 14 as the release date and said, "But Suriya's film is releasing on August 14 sir..."

Laughing, producer Thanu pointed out that he had only said that the film would release in August and that he had not mentioned August 14, making the auditorium erupt in laughter.

For the unaware, director Mysskin's fast-paced action thriller, 'Train', featuring actor Vijay Sethupathi in the lead, has triggered huge interest in fans and film buffs ever since the makers released a teaser recently.

The high octane 43-second teaser shows a speeding train under the control of some vicious people. Scared passengers fearing for their lives look on as one man (Vijay Sethupathi) wages a lone battle. It's evident from the teaser that the train, which resembles a speeding monster, is not halting at any station that it is scheduled to stop at. More significantly, those who seem to have taken control of the train seem to have come well prepared. What is their mission? Who are these people? And who importantly is the person trying to take them on? Like all other Mysskin thrillers, 'Train' too promises to be an edge-of-the-seat thriller.

Train, which is being produced by V Creations and directed by Mysskin, will feature a host of stars including Nasser, Shruti Haasan, Yugi Sethu, Narain, KS Ravikumar, Sampath Raj, Kalaiyarasan, Ira Dayanand and Preethy Karan.

The film has cinematography by Fowzia Fathima and music by Mysskin himself.

Interestingly, Narain in a post on social media last year had released pictures of himself on the sets of Train. The pictures revealed that he was playing a police officer in the film. The disclosure led to speculation if whether Mysskin was attempting to build a Mysskin Cinematic Universe with Train. The reason for the speculation was that Narain had also played the role of a cop in Mysskin's superhit film 'Anjaathey'. However, there has been no confirmation regarding this.
