Urumeen is a 2015 Indian Tamil-language fantasy action thriller film written and directed by debutante director Sakthivel Perumalsamy.

[6][7] The film was later made available on legal digital streaming platforms Herotalkies and TentKotta on 30 June 2016[8] and on YuppTV on 7 July 2016.

The film begins with the introduction of Raja Simhan (Bobby Simha), a historical warrior who stood and fought against the British government when it captured India.

However, Raja Simhan managed to fight for his life and meet his teacher and friend Mohammad Bin Bashir, with whom he discussed his last wish: to be buried alive, to go away from this world filled with treachery.

Then, the story moves to the present day when Raja Simhan gets reborn as Selva, an unemployed young man looking for a job.

He does not realize that the man was earlier working for John, a goon and a businessman who betrayed Raja Simhan as Karuna.

Then, Chezhiyan, the reincarnation of Raja Simhan, rather the second generation of Selva, and his friend Krishna, reborn as John, are called.

Viduthalai (Appukutty), another good friend of Chezhiyan reborn as the security guy in Selva's office, joins him.

Chezhiyan is brought to a field by Krishna, whose true colors are revealed later on that he had joined hands with the officer's son in exchange for power.

A furious Selva gets the indication and breaks a pipe, which results in several wires getting opened and killing John's men, who too were present along with him.

Then, finally comes the turn of John, who picks up his gun to shoot Selva but gets killed when suddenly, a metal sheet comes flying and beheads him.

[13] Kalaiyarasan later revealed that the director had initially asked him to play the hero but that he could not agree as he had other films lined up, while he called his character, John Christopher, "[not] entirely evil".

Initially reported to be produced by Dr. L. Sivabalan under his Zero Rules Entertainment banner,[15] the project was later known to be funded by G. Dillibabu's Axess Film Factory.
