India’s first woman IPS officer Kiran Bedi launched the audio and trailer of the Parthiban-starrer Vithagan.On releasing the audio and trailer in a simple function attended by director AR Murugadoss, who received the first copy from her, Kiran Bedi said that she never attends film functions but she decided to attend this particular function because Parthiban plays a police officer in it.
Bedi recalled attending the audio launch of Vijayshanthi’s Karthavyam (dubbed as Vyjayanthi IPS in Tamil) several years ago and mentioned that to be the first film function that she had attended.
"The film deals with the life of a police officer and I thought it would be wonderful if Kiran Bedi launched the album of the film. She was in Chennai recently and I approached her for the same. However, she said she won't be in the city until October 9, the day we are planning to launch the album. So, we requested her to release the trailer and she gladly agreed. I think it's an honour to have the first women officer in the IPS be part of our film," said Parthipan.
In Vithagan, Parthiban plays the lead role and Poorna is his lead pair.
