A new Tamil film Kudiyarasu is based on investigative journalism. The story is about a bold journalist who tries to expose an influential politician. Vigneshwaran plays the role of the journalist. The story unfolds in a single day, and is directed by National kickboxing champion Shabir Hussain, who is also one of the producers of the film. Says Shabir Hussain: "What happens in a day is the story of the film. The Watergate scandal where two journalists exposed the then US president Richard Nixon is the insipiration for my story. The film proves the pen is mightier than the sword." The film has also Suguna, Deepa, Suresh, Nizhalgal Ravi and Sethu Vinayakam in the cast.
