Actor Jayam Ravi in 2016 collaborated with director Shakti Soundar Rajan, for a zombie thriller titled Miruthan. While it has been years since the film released, social media is now buzzing with the news that the duo will once again join hands to make the sequel for the film.

Miruthan 2 on cards?

Director Shakti Soundar Rajan is known to make films with unique genres and premises, and one such outing was the 2016 zombie film Miruthan. The film's title is an amalgamation of manithan (man) and mirugam (animal). At the time of its release, Miruthan opened to mixed reviews and is one of the few Tamil films to revolve around zombies.

Now as per the latest buzz, the director is said to be working on the sequel of the film, Miruthan 2, and will collaborate with Jayam Ravi once again. However, an official announcement on the project is yet to be made by the team. Miruthan 2 is expected to go on floors from next year, with the pre-production already in place.

Where to watch Miruthan?

Miruthan released in 2016 and is now available for streaming on SunNXT. Alternatively, the film can also be streamed on OTTplay Premium.

Miruthan starred Jayam Ravi in the lead role, along with Lakshmi Menon, Anikha Surendran, Sriman, Kaali Venkat, and others. The film has music scored by D Imman and S Venkatesh as the cinematographer. The film was produced by Michael Rayappan under Global Infotainment banner.

The film revolves around a zombie apocalypse after a toxic liquid from a lab in Tamil Nadu gets spilled. With zombies spreading from city to city, Jayam Ravi plays a police officer, who has to tackle the issue while at the same time find his missing sister. The film ends on a cliff-hanger note after the protagonist converts into a zombie and is on the way to capital city Chennai.
