'Uttama Villain' ('Uthama Villain') Preview: Kamal Haasan Starrer Set for Big Opening

"Uttama Villain", starring Kamal Haasan and directed by Ramesh Aravind, will be released on 1 May. The huge expectation and the pre-release buzz over the film have made way for an overwhelming rush for advance booking of the film.

"Uttama Villain", which is a comedy drama, is being touted as the most iconic flick of Kamal Haasan. As per reports, the Ulaganayagan will portray characters of an eighth century drama artist (Uthaman) and a 21^st century film star (Manoranjan).

Another reason why "Uttama Villain" is much noticed is the presence of late legendary filmmaker K Balachander. The legendary film personality, who was close to Kamal, has reportedly played the role of a director named "Margadarshi" to the superstar in the movie.

Music by Ghibran is yet another noticeable aspect of the movie.
