The much-anticipated Tamil action thriller *Madharaasi*, starring Sivakarthikeyan in the lead role, is all set for its OTT debut. Fans can stream the film on Amazon Prime Video starting October 1. The movie will be available in multiple languages, including Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam, making it accessible to a wide audience.
### Star-Studded Cast and Direction
Directed by acclaimed filmmaker AR Murugadoss, *Madharaasi* boasts a talented ensemble cast featuring Rukmini Vasanth, Biju Menon, Vidyut Jammwal, and more. The film marks a unique venture into a gripping narrative combining psychological elements with high-octane action.
### The Storyline: A Thrilling Psychological Drama
*Madharaasi* follows the story of Raghu, an engineer who suffers from Fregoli delusion — a rare mental disorder where one believes strangers are imposters or disguised people they know. According to the Cleveland Clinic, “Fregoli syndrome is the belief that a stranger or acquaintance is someone you know in disguise,” often causing paranoia, anxiety, and agitation.
Recruited by the National Investigation Agency (NIA), Raghu embarks on a dangerous mission to prevent gun smuggling into Tamil Nadu. His psychological condition becomes both his greatest vulnerability and unexpected strength as he navigates this high-stakes journey.
### Box Office and Reception
Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, *Madharaasi* has performed exceptionally well at the box office. The film has reportedly grossed over ₹97.69 crore worldwide, making it Sivakarthikeyan’s fourth-highest earner after *Amaran*, *Don*, and *Doctor*.
### Director and Lead Actor Speak About the Film
Speaking about the project, director AR Murugadoss said,
“With *Madharaasi*, I wanted to explore the fascinating intersection of the human mind and the world of high-stakes action. Raghu’s journey is at once emotional and thrilling, with his disorder becoming both his greatest vulnerability and his most unexpected strength.”
Sivakarthikeyan added,
“*Madharaasi* is unlike anything I’ve attempted before. Playing Raghu was both a challenge and a revelation.”
