Interesting facts

Annadurai is a 2017 Indian Tamil-language action drama film written and directed by G. Srinivasan. The film stars Vijay Antony in a dual role as identical twin brothers along with Diana Champika, Mahima, Jewel Mary, Vijaya Rangaraju (karuppaia) while Radha Ravi and Kaali Venkat play supporting roles. Vijay Antony also composed music for the film and also served as the film editor for the first time in his career. Produced by Fatima Vijay Antony and Radhika, the film began production during February 2017 and was released on 30 November 2017.

Production

In February 2017, Vijay Antony announced that he would act in a film titled Annadurai by newcomer G. Srinivasan for the production house of Radhika. It was later revealed that the film had no connection to the Tamil politician C. N. Annadurai, and that the title was merely used to garner attention amongst audiences.

In April 2017, Radhika Sarathkumar's properties were put under watch for tax evasion, meaning that Vijay Antony chose to prioritise his work for Kiruthiga Udhayanidhi's Kaali, which he also produced, and the film was briefly put on hold. He later continued to shoot for both films simultaneously. The film was completely shot in Tirukoilur in Tamil Nadu, the hometown of the director.

In September 2017, the makers brought in renowned Telugu actor Chiranjeevi to launch the title of Telugu version of the film, who revealed the title as Indrasena. Chiranjeevi agreed to promote the film owing to his close friendship with actress Radhika.
