Raveena Tandon is making a comeback to Tamil films after 24 years in a new movie titled Lawyer, starring alongside Vijay Antony.
This will be her third Tamil film after Saadhu (1994) and Aalavandhan (2001). Directed by Joshua Sethuraman, the movie is a courtroom drama focusing on a first-generation lawyer’s journey and the struggles of the working class. Raveena plays a strong character with equal importance to Vijay Antony.
Joshua said he approached Raveena after she watched his debut film Gentlewoman. Impressed, she agreed to join the cast.
The story doesn’t include a love track and is based on a civil case in a labour court, aiming to show the real functioning of courts, unlike most courtroom dramas that focus on criminal cases.
Apart from acting, Vijay Antony is also producing and composing music for the film. The director promises a realistic, grounded legal drama.
మౌనరాగం సినిమా పూర్తి చేసి ఇంట్లో కూర్చుంటే.. ఒక ప్రొడ్యూసర్ వచ్చి ఓ హిందీ సినిమా వీడియో క్యాసెట్ ఇచ్చి “కమల్ నీతో ఈ సినిమా చేయాలనుకుంటున్నారు” అన్నారు.
నేను ఈ రీమేక్ చేయలేను అని కమల్ హాసన్ కి చెప్పేశాను, తర్వాత నేను చెప్పిన కొన్ని కథల్లో ఒక పాయింట్ తో “నాయకుడు” చేశాను
