He informed fans that his film will be theatrically distributed by FiveStarSenthil, a film distribution company, in Tamil Nadu.

The theatrical distribution of Dhruv Vikram in Tamil Nadu is a profitable deal for FiveStar Senthil, as the actor shared a huge fan following in the state due to his diverse filmography and his superstar father Vikram.

Dhruv Vikram has been focusing on his music career for the past three years. He was last seen in the film 'Mahaan', which was released on Amazon Prime Video, skipping the theatrical release.

The actor shared the screen with his father Vikram, who played the role of a liquor baron, while Dhruv played the character of a cop who is after his empire.

The movie received positive reviews from the critics and the audience.

Dhruv's upcoming theatrical film is 'Bison' now. This movie will mark the actor's return to the theatre after six long years.

It is helmed by the critically acclaimed director Mari Selvaraj.

The actor was last seen in the theatrical movie 'Adithya Varma', a Tamil remake of Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Telugu film 'Arjun Reddy'.

It served as the debut film of the actor. It was released in 2019.

Honestly, I'm skeptical. Nepotism is strong in Tamil cinema. Hope he proves himself worthy of the big screen this time. Adithya Varma was just okay, nothing special.

Mari Selvaraj + Vikram's son = Blockbuster combination! 🔥 The father-son duo in Mahaan was electrifying. Hope Bison gives Dhruv the breakout role he deserves.

As a hardcore Vikram fan, I'll definitely watch his son's movie. But Dhruv needs to develop his own style instead of riding on his father's fame. Wishing him all the best!

Interesting to see how this pans out. The Tamil film industry is going through such an exciting phase with new talent. Hope Bison lives up to the hype!

Six years is a long gap in cinema. Hope the wait was worth it. Mari Selvaraj's films always have strong social messages - curious to see what Bison will bring to the table.
