Tamil actor Sivakarthikeyan has been honored with an award by army officers for his role in the film Amaran portraying the life of Major Mukund Varadarajan.
Amaran is a 2024 Indian Tamil-language biographical action war film directed by Rajkumar Periasamy and produced by Raaj Kamal Films International in collaboration with Sony Pictures Films India. The movie features Sivakarthikeyan in the role of Major Mukund Varadarajan, with Sai Pallavi, Rahul Bose, and Bhuvan Arora also playing key roles.
In Amaran, based on the life of the late Tamil Nadu army soldier Mukund Varadarajan, Sivakarthikeyan truly embodied the character. This film has propelled him to new heights of fame, establishing him as a globally recognized actor.
29 days after its release, Amaran has grossed over Rs 240 crore in India and over Rs 320 crore worldwide. None of Sivakarthikeyan's previous films have even approached Rs 150 crore. Amaran has elevated him to a mass hero in the Rs 300 crore club.
This puts Sivakarthikeyan in the league of Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, Vikram, Ajith, Vijay, Surya, and Dhanush. Amaran has received no negative reviews so far.
Following its theatrical success, this army-centric film is now coming to OTT. It will be released on Netflix on December 5th.
Following the film's success, directors, political and film personalities, actors, and army officers have been honoring the film. Sivakarthikeyan received an award from army officers. He attended an event organized by the Officers Training Academy in Chennai last Wednesday. He is currently working on SK23, directed by AR Murugadoss.
