Suriya's production house 2D Entertainment Pvt Ltd had earlier announced that four projects bankrolled by them will premiere on Amazon Prime Video in the month of September, October, November and December. The first one among them, Raame Aandalum Raavane Aandalum, directed by Arisil Moorthy, starring Mithun Manickam and Ramya Pandian in lead roles, dropped on the platform a week ago.
Now, it is confirmed that the next project, Udanpirappe, which has Jyotika and Sasikumar playing the lead roles, will premiere on October 14, on the occasion of Dussehra. Directed by Era Saravanan, the movie has Samuthirakani, Soori, Nivedhithaa Sathish and Kalaiyarasan essaying pivotal roles.
The social media handle of the production house tweeted, "Love makes a family bond stronger and we are inviting you to be a part of our family. Come, watch #UdanpirappeOnPrime Oct 14 @PrimeVideoIN." The film, which is titled as Raktha Sambandham in Telugu, marks Jyotika's 50th project.
She was last seen in Amazon Prime's Ponmagal Vandhal, the first Tamil movie which opted for an OTT release after the pandemic hit the world. The Twitter handle of Amazon Prime posted, "Welcoming the queen #Jyothika with her Crown. This Dussehra, we bring to you a film filled with love, laughter, drama but above else, a celebration of family."
Billed as a family drama, the film has cinematography by R Velraj, editing by Ruben and music by D Imman. The movie went on floors in 2019, with a lion's share of its shooting happening at Thanjavur and Pudukkottai. The project, which has Jyotika and Sasikumar playing siblings, was wrapped up before the first lockdown in 2020. TS Gnanavel's Jai Bhim and Sarov Shanmugham's Oh My Dog are the upcoming films made under the banner which will premiere on the OTT platform in November and December respectively.
