Director Pandiraj, who last helmed the 2022 film Etharkkum Thunindhavan, is back. The director, known for directing films like Pasanga, Marina and Kedi Billa Killadi Ranga, is teaming up with Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen for an untitled project.
Produced by Sathya Jyothi Films, the new film sees Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen collaborating once again after the Malayalam film 19(1)(a).
Nithya recently bagged the National Film Award for Best Actress recently for her role in Thiruchitrambalam and in an interaction with us regarding the prestigious win, she said she was looking forward to this film with Vijay Sethupathi. “It’ll not just be a romantic film but something that breaks genres. Since our Malayalam film, we’ve gotten along so well and wanted to do another film. I think it will be a nice experience for all of us,” said Nithya.
