Young actor Dhruv Vikram, the son of versatile star Chiyaan Vikram, is preparing for what could be a pivotal moment in his career with the upcoming film Bison. Although he has delivered strong performances in films such as Adithya Varma and Mahaan, Dhruv is still in search of a significant commercial breakthrough. However, with acclaimed filmmaker Mari Selvaraj directing, expectations are high for Bison. The film’s trailer, released yesterday, has captured attention with its intense narrative and emotional depth. True to his filmmaking style, Mari Selvaraj opts for a socially relevant theme. The story centers on Dhruv’s character, a determined young man from a marginalized community whose life is centered around his passion for Kabaddi.
The trailer showcases his humble beginnings and challenging journey, highlighting the severe oppression he experiences due to caste-based discrimination and societal bias. Despite facing ongoing humiliation and obstacles, Dhruv’s character remains steadfast, rising with resilience to advocate for identity, dignity, and the pride of his community. The trailer suggests a raw, realistic sports drama infused with emotional intensity and strong social commentary—characteristics of Mari Selvaraj’s impactful storytelling. Actresses Anupama Parameswaran and Rajisha Vijayan portray strong rural characters, adding authenticity to the village backdrop and emotional depth to the narrative. Their rustic presence enhances the film’s culturally rooted tone. With compelling visuals and a gripping storyline, Bison is set to release on October 17th, aligned with Diwali.
With its powerful theme, emotional richness, and Dhruv Vikram’s compelling performance, the film is anticipated to be a significant milestone in his career.
