Vijay Antony, fresh off the decent response to Maargan, is back with yet another intriguing project. This time, he steps into the world of politics with his new film Bhadrakali, a political thriller directed by Arun Prabhu of Aruvi and Vaazh fame.
The trailer of Bhadrakali has instantly sparked curiosity with its gripping cut. Set in the murky corridors of politics, the film showcases a world filled with politicians, government officials, ministers, foreign ambassadors, and more. But the striking point is that all of them are connected by one mysterious link—the character played by Vijay Antony.
Interestingly, Vijay Antony doesn’t appear immediately in the trailer. Instead, the edit teases his character by showing how every major figure seems obsessed or troubled by him. He is labeled as everything from a pimp, gangster, and corrupt man, yet remains the central figure in this thrilling political web. The trailer promises a fast-paced narrative packed with suspense and drama, hinting at a rooted, hard-hitting political thriller—something Tamil cinema has always excelled at.
Whether Bhadrakali turns into a much-needed blockbuster for Vijay Antony will also depend on his promotional push. For Maargan, his promotional efforts were comparatively lower, but with Bhadrakali, the stakes are higher and the curiosity is real.
The film stars Vaagai Chandrasekar, Sunil Kripalani, Cell Murugan, Trupthi Ravindra, Kiran, Rini, Riya Jithu, and Master Keshav in pivotal roles. Shelley R. Calist handles the cinematography, while Vijay Antony himself has composed the music. The movie is jointly produced by Sarvanth Ram Creations, Ramanjaneyulu Javvaji Productions, and Vijay Antony Film Corporation.
