Actor R. Madhavan, fresh off his National Award-winning directorial debut ‘Rocketry: The Nambi Effect’ , is now starring in the biopic ‘G.D.N.’ (G.D.N…), based on the life of industrialist and inventor Gopalaswamy Doraiswamy Naidu.
The first look teaser has been released, showcasing Madhavan’s detailed transformation.
