Iru Mugan
Iru Mugan (transl. Two Faced Man) is a 2016 Indian Tamil-language science fiction action thriller film directed by Anand Shankar and produced by Shibu Thameens under the banner Thameens Films. The film stars Vikram in dual roles, alongside Nayanthara, Nithya Menen, Nassar, Thambi Ramaiah and Karunakaran in supporting roles. In the film, an ex-R&AW agent sets out to track down a scientist, who has created a hazardous drug that can boost adrenaline levels.
Principal photography commenced in December 2015. The major portion of the film was shot in Malaysia with few sequences in Chennai, Bangkok, Ladakh and Kashmir. Harris Jayaraj composed the soundtrack and musical score, while R. D. Rajasekhar and Bhuvan Srinivasan handled the cinematography and editing respectively.
Iru Mugan was released on 8 September 2016 to positive reviews from critics and was a commercial success at the box office.
An elderly Malaysian man goes berserk and kills several Indian officers in a span of five minutes at the Indian Embassy in Kuala Lumpur before collapsing to death. A tattoo of a love symbol is present at the back of his neck, leading the R&AW agency to conclude that it is the handiwork of a rogue transgender scientist named Love, whose identity and whereabouts are unknown to anyone except their retired agent Akilan Vinod. Four years ago, while on an assignment to bust Love, Akilan's wife Meera George was killed by them. The R&AW operative Malik tracks down Akilan and convinces him to join the investigation.
On viewing the video footage of the attack, Akilan concludes that the Malaysian man had taken a mysterious performance-enhancing drug which allowed him to attack the Indian officials, and decides to investigate the matter further in Malaysia. Since Akilan is under suspension, Malik assigns him as a deputy to Ayushi, a junior R&AW agent, and the two leave for Kuala Lumpur. In Kuala Lumpur, Akilan and Ayushi learn that the mysterious drug is inhaled using an asthma inhaler. Further investigations lead them to Peter, a scientist on Love's payroll.
Peter becomes an informer and tells them about the drug called Speed. The drug causes a person who inhales it to have extraordinary strength for five minutes before falling unconscious. If the person inhales the drug again within a few hours, they will suffer a massive heart attack. Peter also reveals that a shipment of Speed inhalers is to be dispatched to Love within the next 15 minutes. Akilan and Ayushi pursue the lorry carrying the inhalers, but a lorry driver inhales Speed and subdues the duo, and they are then taken to Love's hideout. Akilan goes to arrest Love but is knocked out by Meera, who is still alive and has been working for Love as a computer hacker by the name ROSY.
It is then revealed that Meera suffers from retrograde amnesia after being attacked four years ago and that Love took advantage of her situation to employ her as a computer hacker to create an impenetrable firewall. However, when Love orders Meera to kill Akilan and Ayushi, she points the gun at Love and calls the police, who arrest him. Meera reveals that she had been forced to take Speed by Love to work faster, but the drug caused her to regain old memories, including those with Akilan. Meera soon regained her full memory after continuous use of the drug. She eventually reconciles with Akilan. While in custody, Love manages to obtain a Speed inhaler and inhales it, helping her escape and destroy the entire police station, killing Ayushi and everyone present. Ayushi had recorded the whole incident by using a bluetooth camera.
Akilan finds out that Love had made a satellite call to Chang, the Transport Minister of Malaysia, who had allowed Love to send shipments of Speed inhalers to India to perpetrate terror attacks there in return for money. Akilan rushes to the hospital where Chang is admitted and interrogates him. During the interrogation, Love sneaks into the hospital and, hiding in the air conditioning vent, sprays a neurotoxic gas in Chang's room, causing Akilan and Chang to get paralyzed. Love then kills Chang and puts the knife in Akilan's hand, framing him as Chang's assassin. Akilan and Meera are declared fugitives, but the duo manages to escape from the Malaysian police.
