Chennai: 9 February 2021 – IPS Officer Sakthi Pandiyan is bright, focused and strives for excellence at work, with a deep and ingrained belief that justice must be delivered. And it is the story of this first of a kind female cop that MX Player brings viewers this weekend, in the high octane drama – MX Original Series – Vadham.
Starring Sruthi Hariharan in the titular role as Inspector Sakthi Pandian – she is determined to solve the murder of an influential businessman alongside an ‘all-women’ task force. The truth that she unravels as she digs deeper into the case tests her limits in ways unimaginable. As a woman officer, she faces oppression and threats in her fight against the system and against powerful politicians but her unwavering sense of responsibility pushes her to ensure that justice is met. The 10 episodic series is produced by Applause Entertainment in association with Tasa Media. The show is written and directed by Venkatesh Babu and will stream for FREE on MX Player, starting 12 February.
Speaking about the show, its writer/ director Venkatesh Babu said, “This high intensity drama, spearheaded by a determined female police officer makes for a perfect binge watch session for audiences who enjoy solving crime mysteries. The story revolves around Sakthi Pandiyan, a young, fierce and idealistic police officer – who goes to the extent of even breaking the law to ensure that justice is served. Sruthi Hariharan has truly brought alive the character of Sakthi and everyone on the show has worked extremely hard to make this series a compelling watch.”
Elaborating on what appealed to her the most about this role, Sruthi Hariharan said, “As an actor, I’ve always sel ected roles that are challe nging and don’t always cater to convention. In Vadham, I personally related a lot to Sakthi Pandiyan as a character, who fearle ssly fights for what is right and is determined to solve the murder of an influential businessman. Playing this role also involved intense action sequences and the process of shooting for it was both exciting and tough to master. The immense support shown by our director, Ven katesh Babu, is what helped me ace my character. I hope our hard work and dedication brings a lot of thrill and joy to the audience and viewers of Vadham”.
The series also stars Ashwathy Warrier, Semmalar Annam, Preetheesha Premkumaran and Vivek Rajgopal in pivotal roles.
