Finally, Srikanth’s Uyir will hit theatres on 30 June.

The movie directed by debutant Samy featuring Malluwood lass Samvrutha and Sangeetha in the lead roles alongside Srikanth.

‘Uyir is a love story with a unique treatment to the subject. Here, the lover-couple face many problems and undergo a lot of turmoil. But they stay together and overcome all obstacles at the end. The film will surely have an impact on today’s youth who get into depression easily and attempt suicide for love failures,’ Srikanth explains.

Playing the role of Sundar, the protagonist, has been both a challenge and rewarding experience to Srikanth. ‘To be honest, I had lived as Sundar during the shooting of the film and director Samy, making his debut, has done a commendable job.’, Srikanth says.

Produced by Sri Balaji Cine Creations, another highlight of this film is its woman cinematographer, Fauziya who had been part of Revathi’s Mitr - My Friend, an all woman film project, and the music by Joshua Sridhar, who composed scintillating numbers in his debut film Kaadhal.
