The highly anticipated collaboration between Dhanush and director Rajkumar Periasamy (‘Amaran’ fame), tentatively titled ‘D55’, officially commenced production with a grand pooja ceremony.
Dhanush stole the spotlight at the launch in a traditional South Indian avatar, sporting a crisp white shirt and lungi.
Adding to the excitement, the makers confirmed that Sai Pallavi and Sreeleela will share the screen in a “powerhouse of grace and strength,” marking a rare casting coup for Tamil cinema.
This film also marks the monumental return of Malayalam Megastar Mammootty to Kollywood after a seven-year hiatus since ‘Peranbu’.
Early reports suggest that Mammootty plays a role with massive grey shades, setting the stage for an intense face-off with Dhanush.
With music by the viral sensation Sai Abhyankkar, the first schedule is currently being canned in a grand set erected in Chennai, focusing on the high-energy interactions between the lead trio.
