It is refreshing to see how South Indian films have successfully managed to break the dry spell at the box office whereas some of the big budget Bollywood films such as Tubelight, Jab Harry Met Sejal, Jagga Jasoos have failed to do so. All of these films failed despite having a stellar star cast.

On the other hand, South Indian movies like Vivegam, Arjun Reddy are going strong at the box office. These movies, including Baahubali, have become the trend setter for the Indian film industry.
 
The movie is directed by Sivakumar Jayakumar. They have previously worked together in Veeram and Vedhalam.  The movie is made on a budget of Rs 100 crore.

Vivegam, that tracks the life story of an intelligence officer played by Ajith Kumar. The movie also features Vivek Oberoi and Akshara Hassan, apart from Kajal Aggarwal, who plays Ajith's wife. This movie marks Vivek Oberoi's debut is the Tamil film industry.
