Over a decade after its original release, Suriya’s action-packed drama Anjaan is returning to the big screen. Directed by N Lingusamy, the film originally hit theatres in August 2014 amid high expectations. While critics lauded Lingusamy’s stylish direction, the screenplay drew mixed responses, with many pointing to its uneven pacing and predictable plot.

A Second Look at Anjaan

Despite the lukewarm critical reception, Anjaan found a devoted audience on television, becoming a familiar comfort watch for fans who enjoyed its slick action sequences and Suriya’s dual-role performance. Now, the producers, Thirrupathi Brothers have announced plans for a theatrical re-release with a re-edited cut. Details about what exactly will be changed remain under wraps, but the aim is reportedly to streamline the narrative and enhance the overall cinematic experience.

The Cast and Crew: A Star-Studded Ensemble

Anjaan features Suriya in two roles: Krishna, a man arriving in Mumbai searching for his estranged brother, Raju Bhai (also played by Suriya), a feared underworld figure. Samantha Ruth Prabhu stars opposite him as the female lead, while Vidyut Jammwal, Manoj Bajpayee, and Dalip Tahil round out a strong supporting cast.

On the technical side, the film brought together some of Tamil cinema’s most celebrated names. Yuvan Shankar Raja composed the music, Santosh Sivan handled cinematography, and editor Anthony oversaw the final cut each contributing to the film’s high production values and visual flair.
