Jiivi 2 to have direct OTT release

The announcement of Jiivi 2, a sequel to Vetri-starrer hit film Jiivi which was released in 2019, was welcomed with a lot of excitement by Tamil movie buffs.

VJ Gopinath, who helmed the first part, has directed the second installment, too.

The project which went on floors earlier this year was wrapped in a short period of time.

The teaser of Jiivi 2 was unveiled a month ago, and now Venkat Prabhu, along with Madonne Ashwin, has released its first look.

The first look poster features Vetri sitting on a throne with an evil smile on his face. He’s also seen with horns attached to his head and wings attached to his back.

The makers surprised film lovers by announcing that Jiivi 2 will skip theatrical release; the movie will have a direct release on aha Tamil on August 19. Karunakaran, Mime Gopi and Rohini, who played impressive characters in the first part, will be seen in the sequel, too.

Suresh Kamatchi has bankrolled the project under V House Productions while KS Sundaramurthy has composed music for the movie.
