Arjun Sarja's latest theatrical outing, Blast, also starring Preity Mukhundhan and Abhirami in lead roles, has an OTT release date. The Subhash K Raj debut directorial hit theatres on May 28 and opened to largely positive reviews.
The story of Blast follows a family of fighters who are embroiled in a larger conspiracy and are forced to go up against a crime syndicate in a fight for survival. The film's cast also includes Vivek Prasanna, John Kokken, Arjun Chidambaram, Pawan, and Dileepan, among others.
Blast will premiere on Netflix on June 25. On Sunday, as the film completes 25 days in theatres, it has earned a total India gross of Rs 58.67 crore as per a report on Sacnilk. The film is expected to at least reach Rs 60 crores before its OTT premiere on Thursday.
An excerpt from CE's review of Blast reads, "Arjun happily plays second fiddle to both Abhirami and Preity, and it must have been a refreshing change of pace for the actor who has often been forced to single-handedly save an entire nation. Nila is consistently on the attack, and full points to Preity for being a convincing damsel putting others in distress. Every kick, every punch, every chop, every leg-lock, every flying attack, every sliding one, every defensive block, and every skull smashed is expertly executed by Preity."
Composer Ravi Basrur, prominently known for his music in the KGF films, has made his Tamil debut with Blast. The rest of the technical team includes cinematography by Arun Radhakrishnan, editing by Pradeep E Ragav, and art direction by Veeramani Ganesan. Archana Kalpathi and Aishwarya Kalpathi serve as creative producer and associate creative producer, respectively. Kalpathi S Aghoram, Kalpathi S Ganesh, and Kalpathi S Suresh are producing the film for AGS Entertainment.
