Sathyaraj and the retired gangster

Sathyaraj will trace back to his roots to the beginning of his career with the movie Ayiram Vilakku, directed by SP Hosimin. He will play the role of an out-of-job gangster who is retired and forced to wield weapon owing to circumstances. Roles with negative shades are not new to Sathyaraj as he stepped into films with villain roles. Even after tasting success as a mainstream hero, he never declined offers to play meaty negative roles, for instance Amaidhi Padai.

Ayiram Vilakku also has Shanthanu in a pivotal character who plays the gullible lad caught in the web of gangsters.
