Tamil film Sirai, a courtroom criminal drama by Vikram Prabhu, hit the screen on December 25, 2025, as a Christmas gift to the audience. The film is now getting ready for its digital premiere after its run in theatres.
The movie will be available for viewers to stream on ZEE5 starting from January 23, 2026. The streaming giant made an official announcement about the release and wrote, "A powerful journey of justice and humanity begins." Sirai will be on ZEE5 on January 23.
The Plot and the Trailer
Sirai is a courtroom crime thriller that follows Chief Constable Kathiravan as he escorts Abdul Rauf, a suspect, from prison to court. As the movie goes on, it uses flashbacks to portray Abdul's past, which shows deep-seated systemic biases and personal issues. The movie is about justice, identity, and compassion. It really focuses on how India's judicial system impacts people who are on the outside and in the minority.
Group of Actors and Technicians
Vikram Prabhu plays the main character in the movie. Other key characters are played by LK Akshay Kumar, Anishma Anilkumar (who is making her Tamil debut after becoming famous for Maranamass), Ananda Thambirajah, Harishankar Narayanan, Remya Suresh, Munnar Ramesh, PL Thenappan, and more.
Suresh Rajakumari directed the movie and worked with Tamizh to write the narrative. Under the banner Seven Screen Studio, SS Lalit Kumar makes Sirai. The soundtrack and background score were written by Justin Prabhakaran, the movie was shot by Madhesh Manickam, and the editing was done by Philomin Raj. Sirai earned largely positive reviews from both reviewers and audiences when it came out in theaters.

Vikram Prabhu featured in the action criminal drama Ghaati with Anushka Shetty before Sirai. Krish Jagarlamudi directed the movie, which followed Sheelavathi and Desi Raju as they struggled against unfathomable obstacles to protect their tribe.
Ghaati featured a great cast, with Jagapathi Babu, Jisshu Sengupta, Brahmanandam, Suhasini Maniratnam, and others, but it didn't fare well at the box office.
