For those unaware, Silambam is an ancient weapon-based martial art. It originated in Tamil Nadu and is one of the oldest martial art forms in the world. The term Silambam is derived from two words. While Silam stands for ‘mountain’, bam stands for ‘bamboo’, which is the main weapon used in this form of martial arts.
Meanwhile, Thangalaan marks Chiyaan Vikram’s 61st film. It is reportedly set against the backdrop of Kolar Gold Fields (KFG). The movie is bankrolled by KE Gnanavel Raja under the banner of Studio Green and Neelam Productions. The music for the movie is composed by GV Prakash Kumar while its cinematography and editing are handled by Kishore Kumar and RK Selva, respectively.
