Let the Chase Begin! Applause Entertainment, in association with E4 Experiments and Eprius Studio, is all set to make a grand debut in Tamil cinema with ‘Por Thozhil’. With much anticipation, the makers today announced, the film is all set to release in theatres on June 9, 2023. A taut, edge-of-the-seat investigative thriller Por Thozhil stars Ashok Selvan, Sarath Kumar, and Nikhila Vimal in pivotal roles and is the directorial debut of Vignesh Raja.
‘Por Thozhil’ translated as ‘Art of War’ is a gripping tale of a bright but faint-hearted rookie cop who teams up with a hostile, reclusive senior cop to catch a serial killer on the loose. With a perfect blend of action, drama and suspense, the film is sure to make a mark in the Tamil film industry.
