We had previously reported that Keerthi Pandian will be playing the lead in the Tamil remake of the hit Malayalam film, Helen. The first look of the film was released earlier today and it's now known that the film is titled Anbirkiniyal. The poster features the cast of the film standing between the buns of a burger. 

Keerthi's real-life father, actor Arun Pandian will be seen playing the role of her father in Anbirkiniyal. Directed by Rowthiram and Idharkuthane Aasaipattai Balakumara-fame Gokul, the film marks the comeback of Arun Pandian after a decade. Apart from acting in the film, Arun Pandian will also bankroll it under his banner A&P Groups, along with his other daughter Kavitha Pandian. 

Shot in Chennai and Pondicherry, the filming of Anbirkiniyal was wrapped up recently and the film is currently in the post-production stage. 

Helen, starring Anna Ben, is a survival drama about a girl who gets trapped in cold storage. Directed by Mathukutty Xavier, the film got both critical acclaim and commercial success.

With music by Maanagaram-fame Javed Riaz and cinematography by Mahesh Muthuswami, Anbirkiniyal is scheduled for release this summer.
