Acclaimed stunt master Kanal Kannan, who had won a name for himself for his action choreography, is ready for his new avatar as hero. He would be playing the lead role in a movie 'Sattrumun Kidaitha Thagaval'. Interestingly, the movie features 'Ammuvagiya Naan' fame Bharathy, director K S Ravikumar, Kushboo, Kausalya and Sreeman in prominent roles.

The movie which will hit the screens on 30th January is directed by Bhuvanai Kannan. Initially, Thakali Sreenivasan was wielding the megaphone. He was replaced by Bhuvanai Kannan later. Produced by S Bhaskar, the flick is an action-packed entertainer and a murder mystery.

Kanal Kannan said, 'I am thrilled and happy to play the lead role. The movie demanded action which is an icing on the cake and I felt I can do justice by playing the lead role. Working with the likes of Ravikumar and Kushboo was a delight. Composing fight sequences and acting are two different extremes. Thankfully my movie has come good'.
