December 15, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Karthis upcoming film 'Siruthai' is getting best on its way to hit screens for Pongal 2010. The producers are high on thoughts of promoting the film vigorously as they acclaim Siruthai as a very special project in the career of Karthi. None of the actors have played dual roles at the earliest part of their career and this makes Karthi an exceptional actor in Kollywood.
According to the sources, Karthi will play the role of a pickpocket named Rocket Raja while the other character will be IPS officer Rathinavel Pandian. The film revolves around a small time thief in Chennai who along with his friend Pattu Poochi (Santhanam) are indulged into petty thefts. He becomes completely perplexed when a small girl claims him to be her dad. Later he realizes that he has identical looks of Rathinavel Pandian, who has been the savior of innocent villagers of Devipatnam, but with an unaccomplished mission of putting an end to realms of baddies.
Now the two contrastive protagonists make sure of bringing light into the lives of villagers suffering from the gruesome tortures of baddies.
The film has musical score by Vidhyasagar and four lyric writers Na. Muthukumar, Pa. Vijay, Vivega and Arivumathi have penned songs. Cinematographer-turned-filmmaker Shiva of Shouryam and Shankam fame makes his debut directorial in Kollywood with this movie.
