“My films have a role to play” – Cheran

image ‘My ‘Pokkisham’ is an analysis of the changing times and the difference it makes in a human being’, says actor – director Cheran.

‘Pokkisham’ is a period film that is set in 1970s and it chronicles the life of a youth. Padmapriya plays his ladylove in the movie, which is almost completed.
