Going by the latest reports, "Anjaan" is all set to take grand opening on Independence Day. While the gangster flick will not have a solo release, as Parthepan's "Kadhai Thiraikadhai Vasanam Iyakkam" is also releasing on the same day, "Anjaan" is likely to be the first choice of public owing to Suriya's popularity among all sections of the audience.
The Telugu version of the film – "Sikindar"- is also releasing simultaneously with the Tamil version. "Sikindar" is set for a grand release in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana areas as Suriya has a huge following among the Telugu-speaking audience. With no big Telugu releases, "Sikindar" is set for a good opening at the box office.
The film has been directed by Lingusamy and produced by Thirrupathi Brothers, UTV Motion Pictures. Suriya appears in dual role in the big budget entertainer, while Samantha plays the female lead. Soori, Manoj Bajpai, Vidyut Jamwal of "Thuppakki" fame and Brahmanandam are also a part of the film.
