AR Murugadoss and Purple Bull Entertainment bring a brave story of patriotism and struggle for independence with their upcoming film, August 16, 1947. Directed by NS Ponkumar, the film stars Gautham Karthik, Revathy, Pugazh, and others, and is set to be released on April 7, 2023.

Elaborating why he decided to take August 16, 1947 to a pan-India level, AR Murugadoss shared, "In the beginning, we intended this film to be a Tamil release, but as we moved ahead, the unanimous reaction was that our story needs to be seen on a wider Pan-India scale."

Throwing more light on the content, AR Murugadoss added, "August 16, 1947, will surprise and enthral you all at once. During an era when the country was stuck in a British cage, our film tells the story of a village that was trapped in a cage inside a cage and how it bravely fought back".
