Sivakarthikeyan,
the
popular
actor
will
be
next
seen
in
the
highly
anticipated
upcoming
project
Doctor.
The
movie,
which
is
said
to
be
an
action-comedy,
is
directed
by
the
young
filmmaker
Nelson
Dilip
Kumar.
If
the
latest
reports
are
to
be
believed,
the
makers
have
now
finalised
the
release
date
of
the
Sivakarthikeyan
project.
According
to
the
latest
updates,
Doctor
has
been
slated
to
hit
the
theaters
on
December
25,
2020,
as
Sivakarthikeyan's
Christmas
special
release.
However,
this
will
be
only
possible
if
the
team
manages
to
wrap
up
the
shooting
and
post-production
of
the
project
before
November
2020.
The
filming
of
Doctor
has
been
currently
put
on
hold
due
to
the
coronavirus
pandemic.
As
per
the
reports,
the
team
was
originally
planning
to
finish
the
shooting
of
Doctor
in
a
30
days
long
final
schedule
at
the
various
locations
of
Goa.
However,
the
schedule
was
canceled
in
mid-way
due
to
the
coronavirus
pandemic.
Now,
the
sources
suggest
that
the
makers
are
planning
to
resume
the
shoot
immediately
after
the
lockdown
comes
to
an
end.
Doctor
marks
Sivakarthikeyan's
first
collaboration
with
Nelson
Dilip
Kumar,
the
young
filmmaker
who
rose
to
fame
with
the
Nayanthara
starrer
Kolamavu
Kokila.
Even
though
the
actor-director
duo
shares
a
great
friendship
from
the
past
14
years,
it
took
them
so
long
to
come
together
for
a
film.
Doctor,
which
revolves
around
the
medical
field,
will
feature
Sivakarthikeyan
in
a
new
avathar.
Priyanka
Arul
Mohan
who
made
her
acting
debut
with
the
Nani
starrer
Gang
Leader,
will
make
her
Tamil
debut
as
the
leading
lady
of
Doctor.
Reportedly,
the
makers
were
in
search
of
a
Tamil-speaking
actress
and
roped
in
Priyankar
after
watching
her
performance
in
Gang
Leader.
Anirudh
Ravichander
has
composed
the
songs
and
background
score
for
the
movie.
Doctor
