"When I pitched the story to my mentor AR Murugadoss, he instantly liked it and was interested in producing it. He sent me to Fox Star Studios, who also liked it. But it's a two heroes subject and the casting part became tricky for the Tamil version," said Anand.

Though Anand had plans to cast Jiiva or Vijay Sethupathi in one of the lead characters, the plan didn't go the way he had anticipated. "As the project was getting delayed, I met actor Sundeep Kishan to make the film in Telugu. Sundeep sent me to producer Tagore Madhu, who's very close to Murugadoss.

Luckily, Murugadoss vouched for me and it worked in my favour," he said, and added that plans for remaking the film in Tamil is still open.‘Tiger’, which releases in cinemas on Friday, also features Rahul Ravindran and Seerat Kapoor in key roles.

"It's an action-thriller. It's a tale about two friends, their bond and the ups and downs they go through in their lives. We've also addressed a social issue, which serves as the core of the film," he said.
