More deets about the film
Parasakthi seems like a groundbreaking story set in the realm of student politics. Alongside Arjun Nadesan, Sudha wrote the screenplay as well. GV Prakash Kumar will compose the film's music, while Ravi K Chandran will handle the photography and Sathish Surya will handle the editing. Notably, Prakash has composed music for 100 films. The movie is produced by Aakash Baaskaran under the Dawn Pictures label.
Notably, in Tamil cinema, the title Parasakthi has a particular place. The late great Sivaji Ganesan made his acting debut in 1952's Parasakthi, which was scripted by M Karunanidhi and directed by Krishnan-Panju. The movie is regarded as a Tamil cinema classic because of its well-known court scene in particular.
