Filmmaker Mari Selvaraj's "Maamannan" will start streaming on Netflix from July 27, the platform announced on Tuesday.

Starring Vadivelu, Udhayanidhi Stalin, Fahadh Faasil and Keerthy Suresh, the Tamil political thriller released in theatres last month. It is directed by Mari Selvaraj ("Karnan", "Pariyerum Perumal") with A R Rahman attached as music composer.

Netflix India shared the premiere date of "Maamannan" on its official Twitter page.

"VADIVELU, UDHAYANIDHI, FAHADH, KEERTHY, MARI SELVARAJ AND AR RAHMAN TOGETHER!! We're seeing stars. #Maamannan, coming to Netflix on the 27th of July!" the streamer tweeted.

Exploring the themes of caste politics, reservation and social injustice, "Maamannan" follows the story of the titular character, played by Vadivelu, and his son Veera (Stalin).

The film is also produced by Stalin through his production banner Red Giant Movies.
