When will Viduthalai Part 2 be released? Even director Vetrimaaran seems to lack a definitive answer to that question. At a recent event in Chennai, Vetrimaaran joked that he can't discuss his future projects because he himself doesn't know when Viduthalai 2, which is ready, will be released in cinemas.
The latest buzz is that the filmmakers have finally decided to release the film during an upcoming holiday. If the reports are true, the producers aim to release the movie during the Deepavali holiday. However, an official confirmation of this is awaited.
Viduthalai Part 1 was released in cinemas in March last year. The film follows the journey of a newly recruited constable who gets deployed in a high-risk security area surrounding the deep forests of Tamil Nadu. Soori's Kumaresan is part of a special task force tasked with capturing Vijay Sethupathi's Perumal "Vaathiyaar," the leader of a rebel group that has become a security nightmare for the government.
As the narration progresses, Kumaresan's humanity and moral values are tested amid brazen human rights violations. He also learns about Vaathiyaar's struggle and the purpose of his fight. The movie ends with Kumaresan helping the cops capture Vaathiyaar to protect the lives of innocent people. The film aims to highlight the dangers of giving unchecked powers to the police.
Viduthalai Part 1 was a big hit, both commercially and critically. The second part was expected to hit the screens soon. However, even a year later, the filmmakers have not revealed the release plans. One reason is that Vetrimaaran seems to be discovering the movie in the process of making it. He has been adding more scenes and hiring new actors, leading to overstretched schedules and overshot budgets.
