Directed by writer Lakshmi Saravanakumar, the web series ‘Lingam’ will release on Jio Hotstar this week.
The press meet of this web series was held in Chennai. The film crew shared many interesting information about this series produced by Vikatan Televistas.Kadir, Divyabarathi, Purnima Ravi and Bose Venkat have acted in it.Kadir said, “Once a film is finished, we start asking what are the next films. We also develop a mindset of waiting for such questions.
This OTD chance came only when the doubt came that ‘we have no commercial sense’. Now everyone has started calling me ‘OTD hero’. But I will take this as a positive. Every series like ‘Shujal 1 & 2’ and ‘Lingam’ is of the quality of a theater film. That’s why I usually ask myself whether I have done two series or four films. The first day of seeing the reaction of people and journalists to the theatrical release is unique.
All the processes in the middle of Maddhapadi will be rolled out by us. In 2022, director Lakshmi Sir came and told the story of ‘Lingam’. He trusted me and gave me this gangster character.
Even though my face is soft, I was confident that I could play any character.”
Speaking on the stage on behalf of Vikatan Televistas, Radha said, “Our Managing Director Srinivasan sir has gone abroad for important work and could not attend this function.
He congratulated the film crew on behalf of himself and the Vikatan team. Vikatan’s first web series ‘November Story’ with Hotstar was well received by the fans. Following that success, this ‘Lingam’ is the second creation of Vikatan’s association with Jio Hotstar.

Following that success, this ‘Lingam’ is the second creation that Vikatan has teamed up with Jio Hotstar. Our sincere thanks to the Jio Hotstar team for this amazing opportunity. The story is based on a true incident that rocked Kanyakumari in the 90s.
This story, which was serialized in ‘Junior Vikatan’ magazine and attracted a lot of readers, is now prepared as a web series. The story of this serial is about how an ordinary person who wanted to become a policeman turns into a big gangster due to circumstances.
Director Lakshmi Saravanakumar has brought this on screen very beautifully and elegantly.” Speaking on this occasion, Poornima Ravi said, “In this opportunity that I got after Bigg Boss, I have played a bold character. Showrunner Prashanth sir and director Lakshmi sir treated me like family.
Touted as an ‘underrated actor’, Kathir’s performance is menacing in this, ‘Lingam’ will mark a major turning point in his career. Divya Bharti and I have become good friends.” After this, Divya Bharti said, “After the Modern IT female character in ‘Bachelor’, I have played a completely different character in ‘Lingam’ series.
I am coming as a Kanyakumari girl named Rohini. It’s an emotional story of a bold woman in the 90s who lives up to one’s flaws. A big thank you for choosing me for such a compelling role.”
