S.A. Chandrasekaran, under the banner of Suryan Arts, is bringing Aathi to theatres by Pongal 2006. Aathi is the 25th year in films for S.A. Chandrasekaran, whose son Vijay is the hero. He is joined by Trisha,who proved lucky in their earlier movies Gilli and Thirupatchi. Director Ramanna has given a hit with Vijay in Thirumalai. Aathi is scheduled for a Pongal release. It is a remake of the popular Telugu Blockbuster Athana Okkade which starred Kalyan Ram opposite Sindhu Tholani. Shooting is almost complete and has been in Visakhapatnam (for the Andhra touch of the original) and Tamil Nadu.

Ramanna says that this will be another blockbuster action movie for Vijay and the entire team is very happy with the manner in which the movie has shaped up.

The movie is about the hero moving to a city to study and also the heroine and her family. They go to the same college, share the same tastes and have one common ambition - to defeat the local dada and his henchmen. Flashbacks reveal that they are relatives, their families were punished and humiliated by the villain, and now they are out to take revenge. Action scenes are fantastic, suspense builds up, and a tempo is maintained with a surprise ending.
