Ahead of the release of Gautham Vasudev Menon’s Joshua Imai Pol Kaakha, the makers announced that the film has completed censorship formalities and has received a U/A certificate from CBFC. Starring actors Varun and Raahei in lead roles, the film is scheduled to hit theatres on March 1.
Earlier the makers had released the trailer of the film which showcases Varun and Raahei’s characters being in love. Varun takes up the task of protecting her at any cost while safely moving her from one location to another. He fights, kills and performs daredevil stunts, going to all extent to save her from any harm. We also see Krishna playing the role of a villain who disrupts his mission. Raahei gets kidnapped by a few goons and Varun must keep his word and bring her back at any cost.
Joshua Imai Pol Kaakha started filming in 2019 and was expected to see a theatrical release in 2020. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the production of the film was halted.
Talking about the film ahead of its release, in a press interaction, the director hinted at the chances of the film falling into the universe of Vikram-starrer Dhruva Natchathiram, which is yet to hit the theatres.
Stressing on the Dhivyadharshini’s (DD) character from Joshua, GVM opened up about the film being part of the Dhruva Natchathiram universe, “DD worked with me in Dhruva Natchathiram, and I told her, the character in Joshua is almost as same as what she has done in Dhruva Natchathiram, or it might be an extension”. Then he goes on to add, ” There is a connection you will get to know when you watch Dhruva Natchathiram.“
This action-thriller is produced by Ishari K Ganesh for Vels Film International. The cinematography for the film is done by SR Kathir.
