Vetrimaaran to make a film with Dhanush before starting Vaadivasal

Award-winning filmmaker Vetrimaaran is set to team up with Dhanush for the fifth time. The two are planning to start works on a film soon after the Covid-19 crisis gets over. Elred Kumar of RS Infotainment will be producing the film. Vetrimaaran had initially committed for another project with the banner. Soori was supposed to play the lead role in that film. However, it had to be postponed as the film demands to be shot abroad.

Vetrimaaran also has ‘Vaadivasal’ with Suriya in the pipeline. It is also a film that needs to be shot amidst huge crowd across various locations. So the director has decided to make a small-scale film with Dhanush before working on the other two projects. It is also learnt that their new film will have a fresh subject and is not a sequel from the ‘Vada Chennai’ trilogy.

Dhanush and Vetrimaaran are one of the most successful actor-director combos in Tamil cinema history. All their films, ‘Polladhavan’, ‘Aadukalam’, ‘Vada Chennai’ and ‘Asuran’ were widely acclaimed. Their last film, ‘Asuran’, was a huge commerical hit that also became Dhanush’s first 100 crore grosser. Expectations will certainly be high when the duo reunite.
