Dhanush and Sai Pallavi are set to share the screen again in D55, the upcoming project from director Rajkumar Periyasamy. The film, produced by Gopuram Films, follows their previous pairing in Maari 2 (2018) and marks the second collaboration between the duo, whose chemistry in the hit song “Rowdy Baby” remains a fan favorite.
Earlier speculation suggested Pooja Hegde as the lead, but industry buzz now points to Sai Pallavi, who recently impressed audiences in Periyasamy’s blockbuster Amaran. The production team has not confirmed the cast officially, yet the rumor mill is active on social media, with fans eagerly awaiting an announcement. If the pairing materializes, it will also reunite Sai Pallavi with Periyasamy for a second time, promising a blend of the strong storytelling that made _Amaran_ a success.
The movie is expected to explore socially relevant themes, aligning with the director’s previous work, and will be a major entry in Dhanush’s upcoming filmography. Sai Pallavi recently celebrated receiving the Kalaimamani honor, sharing a heartfelt post with her grandparents and thanking the Tamil Nadu government and Chief Minister M.K. Stalin for the recognition.
Her gratitude post added personal excitement to the film’s buzz, as fans reacted positively to the potential reunion. With a mega‑budget backing and strong anticipation building across fan circles, D55 is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated Tamil releases of the year, especially if the Sai Pallavi‑Dhanush chemistry returns to the big screen.
