Super Senior Heroes is a 2022 Indian Tamil-language superhero comedy drama film directed by Karthik Kumar and starring K. Bhagyaraj, Ambika, Pandiarajan, Manobala and Chinni Jayanth in the titular roles. The film had a direct release on Sun TV on 16 October 2022. The film released on Netflix on 21 October 2022. Bhagyaraj and Ambika had previously co-starred in Andha 7 Naatkal (1981).^[1]

The film "hints at redefining superhero genre" by casting older actors in the roles of superheroes, which are usually portrayed by youngsters.^[2] According to the director, “There’ll be parallel tracks of comedy which don’t ever entwine with the spine of the film. It’s like an item song—the comedy is an extra thing. You don’t need to understand the story or the film to understand the comedy. This isn’t the case with Super Senior Heroes.”^[3]
