Tamil cinema’s promising actor Manikandan, who has built a strong reputation for choosing meaningful and well-written roles, is all set to headline his next film ‘Makkal Kavaln’ (People’s Protector), which is nearing theatrical release.
Following the success of Kudumbasthan, Manikandan has completed shooting for this socio-political drama produced by Neelam Productions. The film marks the directorial debut of Santhosh Kumar, who previously assisted acclaimed filmmaker Pa. Ranjith. The story revolves around caste politics and its impact on society, presented through a powerful and grounded narrative.
According to industry sources, the makers are planning to bring ‘Makkal Kavaln’ to theatres in March 2026. Post-production work is progressing swiftly, with official announcements—including the first look, teaser, or trailer—expected soon.
Meanwhile, Manikandan is gearing up for his next big project: a film to be directed by Desingu Periyasamy (known for Thunivu and other intense dramas). This upcoming collaboration has already generated significant buzz in Kollywood circles.
With Makkal Kavaln, Manikandan continues his streak of selecting content-driven stories that resonate with audiences. Fans are eagerly awaiting this socially relevant film, which promises to be another milestone in his career. Stay tuned for more updates!
