Why Sivakarthikeyan was perfect fit for Parasakthi? Sudha Kongara reacts to rumors of clashing with Vijay’s Jana Nayagan

The film “Parasakthi,” starring Sivakarthikeyan and directed by Sudha Kongara, is currently being made. There’s some buzz that this movie might compete with Thalapathy Vijay’s “Jana Nayagan” at the box office. Here’s what the director has to share on the matter.

What does Sudha Kongara have to say about the Jana Nayagan vs Parasakthi clash?

At a gathering hosted by Galatta, filmmaker Sudha Kongara expressed, “Rumors suggest a conflict during Pongal season for both our movies, but frankly, I’m uncertain. The ultimate decision regarding the release date of Parasakthi rests with its producer.

For anyone who might not know, there were previous rumors about Thalapathy Vijay’s supposed final film, Jana Nayagan, potentially colliding with SK’s Parasakthi at the box office. However, I recently confirmed that Jana Nayagan is officially set to hit theaters on January 9, 2026.”

Although the exact release date for Parasakthi has not been confirmed as of now, there are strong indications that it may debut during the Pongal festival season next year.

Sivakarthikeyan and Ravi Mohan in Parasakthi

At the very same gathering, filmmaker Sudha Kongara shared her reasons for casting Sivakarthikeyan in the lead role, while assigning Ravi Mohan to the significant antagonist part.

As a devoted admirer, I wholeheartedly affirm that Siva was undeniably the ideal actor for the role. His down-to-earth appearance and the genuine integrity he embodies echo remarkably with the character I envisioned, making him an exceptional fit.

Instead of being similar to me, Ravi Mohan’s personality stands in stark contrast. His character is entirely distinct, and each day collaborating with him proves challenging due to his exceptional nature. Yet, choosing him for the role feels counterintuitive.

About Parasakthi

Parasakthi” is a compelling Tamil political drama movie, helmed by director Sudha Kongara, who collaborated with Arjun Nadesan on the script. This film is reportedly inspired by real events, specifically the anti-Hindi protests that unfolded in Tamil Nadu during 1965.

In the film I’m referring to, I have the privilege of being a fan of the captivating performance by none other than Sivakarthikeyan. The star-studded cast includes talented actors like Ravi Mohan, Sreeleela, and Atharvaa Murali, each playing significant roles that add depth and intrigue to the storyline.

Originally, the movie was intended for Suriya as the main actor, under the title Puranaanooru (Suriya43). It was expected to feature Nazriya Nazim Fahadh, Dulquer Salmaan, and Vijay Verma in significant roles. However, this cinematic project was put on hold, and Kongara later brought it back with a fresh cast and different production company.
