Directed by Pa. Ranjith, Vettuvam is the story of a modern day robin hood. Following the launch, Ranjith expressed, “The film is the story of an ordinary daily wage laborer’s rise to a position of power. While Cholan has no choice but to duel his powerful rivals, the conflict garners him both enemies and supporters.  He may have the protection he needs but his existence is also in question. When his rivals are unable to bring him down, they turn to the higher powers of the state that warrant his downfall. The deeper question that this film tackles is the question of Power and how historically the power bearers have ensured that inferiority prevails and people remain pushed to margins.
