Director Mani Ratnam, known for his legendary works in Indian Cinema, is set to collaborate once again with Vijay Sethupathi for his upcoming film. This will be their second project together, following the success of Chekka Chivantha Vaanam / Nawab (2018).
The script for this project was initially narrated to Silambarasan TR, but due to his packed schedule, Mani Ratnam has decided to move forward with Vijay Sethupathi as the lead. Pre production activities are already underway, with Rukmini Vasanth in final talks for the lead actress. The film promises to be a medium budget project with a new genre, sans big budget action set pieces.
Mani Ratnam's previous works, including Ponniyin Selvan Part-1 and Part 2, have been blockbusters, but his recent film Thug Life faced a huge debacle. This new project is expected to be a big comeback for the director. Vijay Sethupathi has decided to push his other commitments to work with Mani Ratnam, excited to play a full length lead role.
The cast and crew details are expected to be revealed soon. Fans are eagerly awaiting the official confirmation of this project. With Mani Ratnam's direction and Vijay Sethupathi's acting prowess, this film is poised to be a memorable outing for movie lovers.
