While not to be confused with the 2002 Telugu blockbuster of the same name starring Chiranjeevi, this Tamil Indra remains a cult classic for fans of 90s action cinema with a conscience.
A common point of confusion is the 2002 Telugu film Indra starring Chiranjeevi. That film deals with a factional feud and a revolutionary fighting the system, but it is a remake of the Tamil version. Both films share only a title and the theme of a lone hero taking on oppression. Tamil Indra focuses specifically on forest rights, while Telugu Indra explores Rayalaseema politics.
Indra is a 1995 Tamil-language action film directed by Velu Prabhakaran and produced by D. Devarajan. The film stars Rajinikanth in the titular role, alongside Srividya, Roja, and Raghuvaran.
