Pari Elavazhagan's Jama gets a release date

Days after the makers of actor Pari Elavazhagan's directorial debut Jama released the first look, the film's release date has been announced.

Accordingly, the film will get its theatrical release on August 2.

In an earlier conversation with CE, director Pari Elavazhagan, who is also playing the lead role in the film as a therukoothu artiste, who dons female roles in plays, said, "A group of therukoothu artistes who work together as a team is called a Jama. The story revolves around two artistes who start a Jama together. How the protagonist attempts to reclaim the leadership post that his father once lost forms the basic storyline of the film."

Pari is known for his appearances in Yaanum Theeyavan (2017), Chennai Palani Mars (2019), and the recent J Baby.

Jama, which was completely shot in and around Thiruvannamalai, also stars Chetan, Ammu Abhirami, Srikrishna Dayal, KVN Manimegalai, Kaala Kumar, Vasanth Marimuthu, and Siva Maran, among others. On the technical front, the film has cinematography by Gopal Krishna, editing by Partha MA, and art direction by Srikanth Gopal.
