Every mass entertainer needs a pulse, and in Tamil cinema that pulse is usually the music. For Sivakarthikeyan’s next outing, the makers have just revealed who will provide it.
The film, tentatively titled SK27, has officially roped in Sai Abhyankkar to compose the songs and background score. It’s a first-time pairing between the composer and the actor, and it has Tamil film fans talking.

A Reunion That Isn’t Quite a Reunion
Here’s a fun detail. Sai Abhyankkar has crossed paths with Sivakarthikeyan before, but not in this role. He sang on Madharaasi, which was composed by Anirudh Ravichander. SK27 is the first time he’ll be the one behind the music for an SK film.
The makers announced the news on social media with a line that sums up the hype in three words: Sai, sound, sensation. It’s a confident tagline for a composer who has built a loyal following quickly.
The Director and the Mood
Ramkumar Balakrishnan comes to SK27 after Parking, the film that starred Harish Kalyan and MS Bhaskar. That’s a notable shift. Parking was a grounded, character-led story, so seeing him move into a mass action space is the kind of pivot that makes you curious.
Sivakarthikeyan shared a quick update too. He has already shot the opening action sequence and is currently filming a song. Early progress like that usually means the production is moving with confidence.
What’s Next for Sivakarthikeyan?
The actor’s calendar is full. Here’s where things stand:
| Film | Status |
|---|---|
| Parasakthi | His last release, directed by Sudha Kongara. Set in 1960s Madras State, it also stars Ravi Mohan, Sreeleela and Atharvaa Murali |
| Seyon | Directed by Sivakumar Murugesan and produced by Kamal Haasan’s Raaj Kamal Films International. Expected for Pongal 2027, with Bhagyashri Borse and Raj B. Shetty |
| SK27 | Currently in production |
SK reportedly said that around 60 percent of Seyon is complete, with the songs wrapped and some major action sequences still pending.
Why This Combination Works?
Three things make SK27 worth watching:
- Fresh music pairing: a new composer brings a new sound to an SK film
- Genre shift for the director: a quieter filmmaker now stepping into mass territory
- Strong supporting names: Kayadu Lohar, Sudhakar and George Maryan round out an interesting cast
If you like your action with attitude and a soundtrack to match, this one is already on the radar.
