Sakthi Film Factory B. Sakthivelan will be distributing ‘Rasavathi – The Alchemist’.
Santhakumar says, “The film is about a Siddha doctor in his 30s leading a peaceful life in Kodaikanal, but with a buried past that keeps piercing his soul. He comes across a new-to-town girl, who quitting her IT job has landed up in this hilly region for a peaceful pursuit of life. When the upheavals of the past are getting healed by his paradisiacal moments, he experiences the hazardous turbulences caused by a local inspector. The entire crew has been a bliss to work with. I thank Sakthi Film Factory B. Sakthivelan sir for choosing this film, and facilitating a greater release on May 10.”
