At the moment, not much is known about the movie's plot. Speculation is rife that this is the film Murugadoss initially wrote with Thalapathy Vijay in mind.
The film also stars Rukmini Vasanth as the female lead. Rukmini made a mark with her performance in the Kannada romantic tragedy Sapta Sagaradaache Ello, and she will be making her Tamil cinema debut with this film.
Bollywood actor Vidyut Jammwal is reuniting with Murugadoss for SK23 after a long gap. He previously played the main antagonist in Murugadoss' blockbuster Thuppakki (2012). The film is expected to be released in cinemas next year.
Meanwhile, Murugadoss is also working on his upcoming Hindi movie titled Sikandar, starring Bollywood superstar Salman Khan in the lead role.
