In Kaithi, Karthi played a prisoner on parole to meet his daughter he has never seen. When he crosses paths with a cop, he’s forced to join forces with him and fight the drug lords who are after a cocaine consignment in police custody. The entire story unfolds in a single night within a span of four hours.
Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, Kaithi grossed over Rs. 100 crore in cinemas during its run.
The film was lauded for its tight screenplay and extremely well-choreographed fight sequences. It’s essentially a gripping thriller and a tribute to all the celebrated cop thrillers one can think of.
The project is now being remade in Hindi with Ajay Devgn, and it’s titled Bholaa. In July, Devgn confirmed he will play the titular character as well as direct the project, which will also star Tabu in a crucial role.
