Another standout performance is that of Sanjana, who plays the role of Velonie, receiving applause, acclaim, and leaving many in disbelief that Vadhandhi is her debut. Along with masterclass performances by M. Nasser, Vivek Prasanna, Kumaran Thangarajan, Laila, and Smruthi Venkat, weaving the storyline together is the impeccable direction of Andrew Louis, intelligent cinematography by Saravanan Ramasamy, and beautiful but jolting background score by Simon King.
Check out some of the twitter users' review of the series here:
S.J. Suryah, who makes his streaming debut through the series said, “I was delighted when I was approached by Pushkar and Gayatri for Vadhandhi. The moment my close friend and director Andrew narrated the script to me, I knew I had to jump on board. I have played a cop earlier in my career, but my character Vivek is exceptional. The way this case and story consume him, I find myself fascinated and at the same time, anxious for him. Besides the twists, turns and thrills of this whodunnit, the story is thought-provoking and will connect with viewers on an emotional level."
Produced by Pushkar and Gayatri of Wallwatcher Films and created by the brilliant Andrew Louis, the eight-episode Tamil crime thriller is streaming in India, and 240 countries and territories, in Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada, on Prime Video.
