anticipated
cop
thriller
that
features

the
lead
role,

finally
premiered
on
Disney

which

Pon
Manickavel,
which
is
scripted
by
the
director
himself,
is
based
on
a
real-life
police
officer
of
the
same
name.
Prabhudeva,
the
leading
man
has
gone
for
a
complete
image
makeover
for
his
character
in
the
film.
The
actor-filmmaker
is
playing
the
first
cop
role
of
his
acting
career
in
the
movie,
which
is
touted
to
be
an
out-and-out
action
thriller.
However,
Pon
Manickavel
hasn't
completely
forgotten
the
brilliant
dancer
Prabhudeva
is.
Pon
Manickavel
revolves
around
the
murder
of
a
judge
and
Pon
Manickavel,
the
deputy
commissioner
of
police
who
handles
the
investigation.
As
per
the
latest
updates,
the
Prabhudeva
starrer
is
a
formula
cop
thriller
that
follows
the
age-old
tropes
of
Tamil
cinema's
police
stories.
However,
casting
Prabhudeva
in
the
titular
role
is
definitely
not
a
cliched
choice.

Menon,
Soori,
Mahendran,
Prabhakaran,
and
others

starrer
is

by
Nemichand
Jhabak
and
Hitesh
Jhabak,
