The makers of Sonia Agarwal and Vanitha Vijaykumar-starrer Dandupalayam have announced the release date of the upcoming film. Directed by Tiger Venkaat and KT Nayak, Dandupalayam is set for release on June 7.

The trailer of the film, which was released in April, showcases Sonia Agarwal and Vanitha taking the role of ruthless killers. We also see glimpses of villagers being subjected to police brutality. Although we can't deduce much from the trailer, the film looks to be heavy on violence. The film, which is said to be based on true incidents, has been given an A certificate by the censor board.

According to reports, the 'Dandupalya' gang in Karnataka, numbered about 30 men and women, are thought to have killed more than 80 people. Sixteen death sentences and four sentences of life imprisonment have been given to members of the gang, while others have received shorter prison sentences.

Apart from Sonia Agarwal and Vanitha VijayKumar, the film also stars Mumait Khan in a key role. On the technical crew, Dandupalayam has music by Jithin K Roshan, cinematography by P Ilangovan and editing by Pradeep Mohan, Baby Shreevatsav and Naveenkumar. The film is produced by Venkaat Movies.
