The trailer of Parasakthi, starring Sivakarthikeyan, has been unveiled, offering a gritty glimpse into a politically charged period drama set in the 1960s. Directed by Sudha Kongara, the film tackles the sensitive issue of Hindi imposition and the social unrest it triggered, blending politics, friendship, love, and rebellion into a high-stakes narrative.
The trailer opens with Sivakarthikeyan’s character making a pointed remark about language and identity, setting the tone for a story rooted in linguistic pride. As a law declaring Hindi the primary language sparks nationwide tension, protests erupt, leading to ideological clashes. Central to the conflict is the strained friendship between Sivakarthikeyan’s character and Ravi Mohan, who appears in a dark, menacing avatar. Sreeleela plays the female lead, portrayed as someone who bridges the divide while also sharing a romantic connection with the protagonist.
Featuring Atharvaa in a key role, Parasakthi promises intense performances backed by GV Prakash Kumar’s music, Ravi K Chandran’s cinematography, and Sathish Suriya’s editing. The film is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on January 10, 2026, and will face a major box office clash with Vijay’s Jana Nayagan, his final film before fully entering politics.
