Yaman (English: Lord of Death) is a 2017 Indian Tamil-language political action thriller film[1] written and directed by Jeeva Shankar.

The film, which features Jeeva Shankar and Vijay Antony doubling up as the cinematographer and the music composer respectively, was released.

At the same time, Arivudai Namib’s wife, Agaliya, gives birth to a son named Tamizharasan.

Thirty years later, Tamizharasan’s grandfather has to have an operation to remove cancer but it cost 3 lakhs.

Anjana meets with Tamizh and informs him that someone has been constantly calling her and sexually harassing her and she believes that the caller has political support.

Tamizh informs that he wants to contest as a candidate in the upcoming elections for VTMK (Veera Tamizhar Muentra Kazhagam).

Pandi says that he will kill Tamizh and informs Karunakaran that he needs Thiyagu to die for the court cases to disappear.

His party inform Tamizh that he has been selected as a candidate for the election, and hears that Thiyagu has met with a fatal car accident.

Eventually, Tamizh’s goons kill Councillor Anbazhagan during a planned meeting with a woman and they also kidnap Thangapandi.

In December 2015, Jeeva Shankar announced that his next film would feature Vijay Antony and the pair would collaborate after working together in Naan (2012).

[6] Thiagarajan joined the film's cast during May 2016 and revealed that he would portray the lead antagonist, appearing as a "political mastermind".

The song "Yem Mela Kai Vachaa Gaali" was released as a single in September 2016, during the Tamil Nadu Premier League match of Kovai vs Chepauk held in Tirunelveli.

[13] A critic from The Times of India wrote "overall, a little more pace, doing away a duet song which appears in the second half which makes audience yawn and slight tone down of heroism would have worked wonders".

The New Indian Express stated "despite the glitches, and with more positives than negatives, Yaman is a fairly interesting watch".

And Vijay Antony isn't actor enough to clue us in to the character's inner workings...To his credit, he wants to veer away from the mass-hero template.
