Kichcha Sudeep in Dhanush’s next directorial?

We had recently reported about Dhanush joining hands with Mersal’s makers Sri Thenandal Films for his second directorial. Dhansuh will be directing and playing the lead in this upcoming movie, which is said to be a romantic drama set in the pre-independence era.

Since the movie is being made as a bilingual in Tamil and Telugu, the makers have been trying to get on board a big star from the neighboring industry. Chiranjeevi, Nagarjuna were some of the names that were doing the rounds initially. But as per latest reports, Dhanush has approached Kichcha Sudeep for his upcoming movie.

If Sudeep has indeed signed the project, it will mark his return to Tamil cinema after a brief gap. He has previously done Tamil movies like Naan Ee (bilingual), Puli and Mudinja Ivana Pudi. The actor has a huge following in the Telugu states and Karnataka, so it will be a huge boost if Dhanush manages to get him in board. An official confirmation regarding his casting is still awaited.

Dhanush apart from being a highly talented actor has also tried his hand at various other departments like playback singing, lyric writing, production and screenwriting. His debut film as a director Power Pandi aka Pa Pandi was a feel-good romantic tale of a middle aged pair. The movie found critical acclaim and was also a successful affair at the box office. So the audience will definitely be expecting another quality film from Dhanush.
