With just a couple of weeks to go for Vijay Antony's Pichaikkaran 2 release, the team released the trailer of the film today. The trailer was supposed to release at 11am, but it got delayed by over an hour. Vijay Antony, in the meantime, told his fans that the trailer was loading and that it was coming shortly.
Going by the trailer, the plot revolves around the murder of a business tycoon Vijay Gurumoorthy who is killed by Sathya. As he is arrested by the police and is produced before the court, the public is seen shouting 'Anti-Bikili.' Vijay Antony himself is known as Bikili in the film and the film is likely to revolve around why he ended up killing Vijay Gurumoorthy.
Pichaikkaran 2 is said to be sequel to the 2016 film, Pichaikaaaran. The original was written and directed by Sasi, and starred Vijay Antony and Satna Titus in the lead. The plot revolved around a billionaire who had to act as a beggar as part of a religious offering in order to save the life of his mother. The film was remade in Kannada as Amma I Love You, Odia as Baby and in Marathi as Bhikari.
The second instalment of the film, on the other hand, is helmed by Vijay Antony himself. The star cast includes Vijay Antony, Kavya Thapar, Hareesh Peradi, Radha Ravi, YG Mahendran and Mansoor Ali Khan. Vijay Antony has also scored the music for the film and handled the editing. The film's shoot had got delayed after Vijay Antony met with an accident on the sets in Langkawi in Malaysia. He had undergone surgery but is now doing well.
Pichaikkaran 2 is set to release in Tamil, Telugu (Bichagadu 2), Kannada (Bhikshukha 2) and Malayalam (Bhikshakkaran 2). Cinematography is by Om Narayanan. The satellite and digital rights of the film have been bagged by Star Network.
