Election
Election is an upcoming Tamil film starring actor and director Vijay Kumar in the lead role. The film is scheduled to hit big screens on May 17. The upcoming film is written and directed by filmmaker Thamizh, who has previously made the critically acclaimed Seththumaan.
Plot
The plot of Election is about a man named Nadarasan, who does not seem to be interested in politics, but eventually jumps into it in order to honour his father. As he contests in the local body elections, Nadarasan understands the murky world of politics, the trials and tribulations and the cutthroat atmosphere.
Trailer
The trailer of the film was released by the makers recently. It begins with a quote by Abraham Lincoln, “The ballot is stronger than the bullet.” A character talks about the importance of the shoulder towel for a politician, something that is very common in Tamil Nadu. There are also intercuts to various campaigns for the elections. In between this, we also see a young couple in love and getting married eventually. The husband is later seen as a contestant for an upcoming election, while his mother is advising him against joining politics. Without revealing the plot, we are shown the face-off between candidates who are sons of a leader and cadet, contesting against each other.

Other cast members include actors Preethi Asrani, Richa Joshi, George Maryan, Paval Navageethan, and Dileepan.
