Producer turned director, S. Sashikanth makes his directorial debut with the psychological thriller ‘Test,’ a tale of three people whose lives intertwine during an international test cricket match: Saravanan (R Madhavan) a middle class husband struggling to get his hydro-fuel energy project on board with the relevant authorities, his wife Kumudha (Nayanthara) in hopes to obtain IVF treatment to get pregnant, and Arjun (Siddharth), a cricket player pressured to retire due to his declining form in the last two seasons. 

Eid al-Fitr was marked in Tamil Eelam this week, as Muslims in the Tamil homeland joined those around the world to celebrate the festival.
