Karthi's portrayal of straight forward policeman Rathnavel Pandian in 'Siruthai' put him among the top ten best reel cops of Tamil cinema.  His thundering  dialogue delivery and stylish gesture of twirling his mustache had fans reeling in awe.  Karthi after a long time is again donning the police get up for his upcoming movie 'Theeran Adhigaram Ondru' directed by Vinod of 'Sathuranga Vettai' fame.

The question on everybody's mind is how different Karthi's latest cop avatar be compared to his much celebrated previous one.  Director Vinod has clarified that unlike Rathnavel Pandian, Theeran is a much more realistic cop and Karthi does not have a single punch dialogue in the film.  The film deals with a dark collar crime in the 90s and the investigation surrounding it will have Karthi in full on action with few words.  Rakul Preet Singh is the leading lady while Sathyan plays an important role in this Dream Warrior Pictures production that hits the screens on the 17th of November 2017.
