An unexpected assassination attempt leaves Sakthivel shaken. With trust eroding, he starts to suspect betrayal from within.

3. Madras Matinee

- Release date: June 6, 2025
Madras Matinee tells the story of an elderly science fiction writer who finds his imagination running dry. His caretaker encourages him to write something grounded—something about the everyday man. Hesitant at first, he accepts the challenge and begins penning the life of Kannan, a humble TukTuk driver.
As he delves into Kannan’s world, the writer uncovers the emotional depth and struggles within a seemingly simple life. Kannan’s journey, along with his family’s ups and downs, slowly transforms the writer’s perspective. What begins as a reluctant attempt becomes a heartfelt narrative. The film beautifully explores how ordinary lives can be just as powerful and moving as fictional epics.
