Before Sardar, Karthi was most recently seen in Mani Ratnam's Ponniyin Selvan 1 portraying the character of Vallavaraiyan Vandiyadevan. The film has earned more than Rs 450 crore at the box office. Along with Karthi, the multi-starrer also featured Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Chiyaan Vikram, Jayam Ravi, and Trisha among others. And before the historical epic, Karthi headlined the masala film Viruman released in August 2022, which also turned out to be a commercial success.
