Sarkar is actor Vijay's latest film that has Keerthy Suresh playing the female lead, while Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, Radha Ravi and Pala Karuppaiah play the villain roles. The film is directed by AR Murugadoss and Produced by Kalanithi Maran of Sun Pictures. AR Rahman composed the music and Girish Gangadharan handled the cinematography.
This is Vijay's next film after Mersal. The producer of Mersal, Hema Rukmani took to Social Media to post a detailed review of the film. She wrote:
"#Sarkar is a pakka mass film with #ThalapathyVijay looking like a million bucks. He fights, dances, glides, walks and holds the film together only by his sheer charisma, style quotient, acting prowess and indomitable screen presence. What a man ! Phew !
That said, it is a film that speaks about a better tomorrow and a change from within. I am a sucker for such idealistic visions.
Some of the dialogues are so poignant and as for some, Vijay sir's voice modulation and dialogue delivery smoothen 'em out.
#VaralakshmiSarathkumar does a fine job of the given screen time. She is the strong woman, who is given a gender neutral treatment. In a super star film, that's a welcome change.
It is a masala. Some elements more, some less...but entertainment guaranteed."
