Kadaram Kondan is a 2019 Indian Tamil-language action thriller film directed by Rajesh M. Selva, who previously made the critically acclaimed Thoongaa Vanam . Produced by Kamal Haasan under his banner Raaj Kamal Films International, the film stars Vikram in a dual role alongside Akshara Haasan and Abi Hassan (making her debut). The film’s title is a historical epithet of the medieval Chola king Rajendra Chola I, who conquered the Srivijaya kingdom of Kadaram (modern-day Kedah, Malaysia). However, the film uses this title metaphorically rather than as a historical drama. Plot Summary (Spoiler-Free Synopsis) The story revolves around Dr. KK (Vikram), a suave, enigmatic, and highly skilled surgeon living in Malaysia. He is married to Malini (Akshara Haasan), and they have a young son. Their seemingly perfect life is shattered when Malini is kidnapped by a ruthless gang led by the powerful and sadistic Ravi (Prakash Raj, in a chilling cameo).
A well-crafted, if conventional, action entertainer that proves Vikram can excel in a restrained, "less is more" role. Rating: 3/5 (Above Average).
The kidnappers demand a seemingly impossible ransom: retrieve a mysterious "package" hidden in a heavily fortified police evidence vault in Kuala Lumpur. Forced into action, KK reveals he is not just a doctor. He is a former elite operative with extraordinary combat and infiltration skills. As KK embarks on a high-stakes mission against time, he discovers that the package is linked to a larger conspiracy involving corrupt officials, a deadly virus, and the gang’s true mastermind, a man named Vasco (Abi Hassan).
