Directed by Sathyasiva, the film “Freedom,” featuring Sasikumar in the lead role, is scheduled for a global theatrical release on July 10, 2025.
Produced by Pandian Parasuraman under the banner of Vijaya Ganapathy Pictures banner, the film features Sasikumar and Lijomol Jose, known for her role in “Jai Bhim”, and is helmed by acclaimed director Sathyasiva, known for the critically acclaimed film “Kazhugu”. The official poster announcing the release date was revealed by the film team.
Director Sathyasiva, who made a mark with “Kazhugu”, has crafted “Freedom” as a gripping thriller drama based on a real-life incident from the 1990s.
After the success of his Tourist Family Blockbuster, Sasikumar makes another comeback with yet another distinct film set against the backdrop of “Eelam”. The pairing of Sasikumar and Lijomol Jose, reminiscent of classic on-screen duos like Sasikumar and Simran, is expected to captivate audiences with their strong onscreen chemistry.
Known for choosing unique subjects and delivering consistent hits, Sasikumar is expected to once again bewitch audiences with a heartwarming and engaging film.
Since the film is set in the 1990s, the team has worked diligently to recreate the era authentically. A grand set replicating the East Coast Road of that period was constructed at great expense to shoot signifant scenes. The entire filming took place across Chennai and Kerala and is now wrapped up.
Sasikumar plays the lead in a unique role, while Lijomol Jose, who garnered huge response in “Jai Bhim”, plays the female lead. Bollywood actor Sudev Nair takes up the role of the antagonist. The cast also includes Malavika (of KGF fame), Boss Venkat, M. Ramasamy, and Ramesh Khanna in crucial roles.
Having worked as an executive producer on many major Tamil films, Pandian Parasuraman now makes his debut as a full-fledged producer with this grand-scale project under the banner of Vijaya Ganapathy Pictures.
The film’s music is scored by Ghibran, the cinematography carried out by NS Udhayakumar, and the editing part handled by Srikanth NB.
Announcements regarding the teaser and trailer of “Freedom” will be made soon. The film is all set for a worldwide theatrical release on July 10.
