Parasakthi — the highly anticipated socio‑political action drama starring Sivakarthikeyan — has now begun streaming digitally after its theatrical release earlier this year.

Here’s everything you need to know about its OTT launch, where to watch, when it premiered online, plot background and more.

🎬 What Parasakthi Is About

Parasakthi is a Tamil‑language political action drama directed by Sudha Kongara, featuring Sivakarthikeyan in the lead role alongside Sreeleela, Atharvaa and Ravi Mohan. Set against the backdrop of the 1960s anti‑Hindi imposition agitations in tamil Nadu, the story follows a railroad employee who becomes part of the protest movement for linguistic identity and dignity.

The film blends intense social themes with emotional personal journeys, making it one of the most talked‑about tamil films of early 2026.

📅 Theatrical Release

Parasakthi premiered in cinemas on 10January2026, timed with the Pongal festival audience. While the box office saw mixed results with momentum dropping in later weeks, it generated wide discussion due to its political subject matter and performances.
