Iru Mugan (English: Two-faced) is a 2016 Indian Tamil-language film written and directed by Anand Shankar. The film stars Vikram in dual roles, Nayantara and Nithya Menen in the lead roles, while Nassar, Thambi Ramaiah, Karunkaran and Riythvika appear in supporting roles. Having gone through several changes in pre-production of cast and producers, the film began shooting in December 2015. The film was simultaneously dubbed into Telugu as Inkokkadu and was released worldwide on 8 September 2016.
A 71-year old Malaysian man suddenly goes ballistic and kills several Indian officers in a span of 5 minutes at the Indian Embassy in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, before collapsing. A tattoo of a love symbol is present at the back of his neck, leading RAW officials to conclude that it is the handiwork of a criminal scientist named Love, whose identity and whereabouts are unknown to anyone except Akhilan Vinod (Vikram), a former RAW agent whose wife Meera (Nayantara) was killed by Love four years ago. The RAW chief Malik (Nassar) tracks down Akhilan and convinces him to take part in the Indian Embassy attack investigation. On viewing the video footage of the attack, Akhilan comes to the conclusion that the elderly Malaysian man had taken a mysterious performance-enhancing drug which allowed him to attack the Indian officials and decides to investigate the matter further in Malaysia. Since Akhilan is no longer a RAW agent, Malik assigns him as a deputy to a junior RAW agent Aayushi (Nithya Menen), who is officially assigned to handle the case, and the two of them leave for Kuala Lumpur.
