Actor
Vikram’s
latest
action
thriller
Cobra,
written
and
directed
by
R
Ajay
Gnanamuthu
has
hit
the
screens
amid
huge
expectations
from
fans
and
movie
buffs.
The
movie
met
with
mixed
to
positive
reviews
upon
its
opening
at
the
theatres
on
August
31.
Chiyaan
Vikram
is
being
praised
for
his
yet
another
challenging
act
he
has
put
on
for
Cobra.
The
actor’s
performance
and
the
varied
get-ups
are
received
well
with
many
critics
calling
it
an
award
worthy
performance.
KGF
fame
Srinidhi
Shetty
was
cast
as
the
film’s
female
lead
which
has
an
ensemble
cast
of
elaborate
actors
of
Tamil
and
Malayalam
cinema.
While
heaps
of
praises
are
pouring
in
for
Vikram,
the
movie
has
got
no
much
novelty
other
than
an
entertaining
soundtrack
by
AR
Rahman.
The
film’s
screenplay
is
said
to
be
unimpressive
and
addition
of
elements
such
as
songs
make
it
a
tad
bit
boring.
Immediately
after
the
film’s
release,
several
illegal
online
websites
wasted
no
time
in
copying
the
film’s
content.
The
pirated
film
copies
are
made
available
for
viewing
and
downloading
in
HD
quality.
The
links
have
been
going
viral
on
social
media
as
well.
Collective
efforts
by
the
cops
and
producers
to
contain
piracy
have
proved
futile.
Irfan
Pathan,
the
Indian
cricketer
made
his
acting
debut
with
Cobra.
He
was
seen
in
the
role
of
an
Turkish
Interpol
officer
Aslan
Yilmaz,
who
is
on
a
lookout
for
a
criminal
named
Cobra,
a
most
wanted
assassin.
Meanwhile,
Madhiazhagan,
a
mathematician
gets
involved
in
the
cat
and
mouse
chase.

Kumar

Crore.

and

was
taken
care
of
by
