Director Karthik Kumar’s comedy-drama ‘Super Senior Heroes’ released on the Ott platform Netflix on Friday.

The Karthik Kumar-helmed family entertainer was released worldwide on the Tamil regional channel, Sun TV, on October 16.

Super Senior Heroes, which is Yoodlee Films’ third association with Kollywood after successful projects like ‘Abhiyum Anuvum’ and the critically acclaimed, ‘K.D’, features veteran actors from the Tamil film industry including ace director-actor-screenplay writer K.

But what the director didn't tell us was that he would actually be borrowing even shots and themes from the star's earlier movies. And as we watch Petta, the fan in each one of us is soon playing a guessing game, figuring out which scene was influenced by which superstar hit.
