Varathan, Virus writers Suhas-Sharfu to script Dhanush’s next

Recently, it was announced that Dhanush’s next film will be Karthick Naren of ‘Dhuruvangal 16’ fame. Sathya Jyothi Films will be producing the film, which has been tentatively titled as ‘D 43’. GV Prakash has been signed as the music director. Last day, during a casual chat with his Instagram followers, Karthick Naren revealed that he will be collaborating with Malayali writer duo Suhas-Sharfu for scripting this film.

Suhas and Sharfu made their debut with the Fahadh Faasil starrer ‘Varathan’. Last year, they teamed up with Muhsin Parari to pen the medical thriller ‘Virus’. Both the films were hits and their works got noted. It is not often that Malayali scenarists get such a big opening in other languages, so Suhas-Sharfu duo will be hoping to make the most of it.

During the announcement of D 43, the makers had shared a poster which revealed a slight bit about the plot. It is centred around the death of an independent journalist, Gurumoorthy, and his wife in an accident, and how their elder son is determined to solve the mystery behind the deaths.

Shoot for the film is expected to begin in a couple of months time. The makers have confirmed that it will be an October 2020 release.
