Jayam Ravi teams up with Tamannah for this remake of Telugu blockbuster 'Kick'.

Directed by M Raja, who is known for hits like 'Jayam', 'Something, Something...' and 'Santosh Subramaniam', this new film is a racy action adventure flick. Having made a big impact in 'Kick' with his powerful performance as a police officer, Shaam will also be seen in the Tamil version. Comedian Vadivelu joins with Ravi to provide the laughs, while Prabhu takes an important straight role. Much of the movie was filmed in Malaysia, and it's all about a guy who loves challenges in life and expects a 'kick' from doing out-of-the-world things. The songs are by Yuvanshankar Raja and have already gone down a storm with music fans. Watch out for the interesting highlight of a four-and-a-half minute '360 degree song' featuring the lead pair and reputedly shot with a motion control camera.
