Fans of Kollywood star Ajith Kumar, who have been waiting eagerly for the release of his upcoming movie Nerkonda Paarvai, has a reason to cheer.
The movie will be released on August 8, which is a week earlier than the release date announced earlier—August 15. The producer of the movie, Boney Kapoor, confirmed the release date on Twitter.
Directed by H. Vinoth, Nerkonda Paarvai is an official Kollywood remake of the Bollywood movie, Pink, which had Taapsee Pannu and Amitabh Bachchan in the lead. While Ajith will play the character played by Bachchan in the original, Shraddha Srinath will reprise the role played by Taapsee. The movie also marks the Tamil debut of Bollywood actor Vidya Balan, who is rumoured to be playing the role of the wife of Ajith's character.
Other actors in the movie include Abhirami Venkatachalam, Adhik Ravichandran and Arjun Chidambaram.
Earlier, it was revealed that Nerkonda Paarvai will be simultaneously released in China, making it the second Kollywood movie to be released in that country after Rajinikanth's 2.0.
