Vettaiyan is an action drama directed by T. J. Gnanavel starring superstar Rajinikanth. The film follows Superintendent Athiyan (played by Rajinikanth), a hardened “encounter specialist” known for his no-nonsense approach to criminals. When he accidentally kills an innocent man during a high-stakes murder investigation, Athiyan’s unwavering belief in his own methods begins to crack. With a powerhouse cast that includes Amitabh Bachchan (in his Tamil debut), Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati, Manju Warrier, Ritika Singh, and Dushara Vijayan, Vettaiyan dives deep into themes of justice, morality, and the dangerous cost of taking the law into one’s own hands.

Rajnikanth’s last hit venture was the dark action-comedy film Jailer. It was a hoot to watch Rajnikanth, the superstar of India, pull off such delicious dark characters with utmost finesse. Keeping that in mind, T.J. Gnanavel tries to recreate a similar premise with the superstar. Vettaiyan is about the investigation into the death of a public-school teacher who was very close to Rajnikanth’s character in the film.

Who was Sp Athiyan?
Vettaiyan began with Patrick, aka Battery, serving tea at a meeting of local mafia dons who were discussing the wrath of the new superintendent, Athiyan. There were only two gang lords who were not afraid of the new sheriff in town. One of them ended up being attacked in the police raid that happened at this meeting. Athiyan was known to be an encounter specialist in the Kanyakumari region. His shoot on sight policy had all the gang lords terrified.
