Desperate hit was the need of hour and Dhanush banked all his hopes compulsively. The result? Velai Illa Pattadhaari, Dhanush 25th film turned to be one of the year’s stunning blockbusters. What followed this was a series of remarkable flicks like Shamitabh and Anegan taking the powerfully lean actor by storming flight to the heights of his career graph.

Completing his ‘Maari’ directed by Balaji Mohan and produced by Sarathkumar-Radhika Sarathkumar in a short span of time, the actor gears up to team up with cinematographer-director Velraj and Anirudh for his untitled next that will go on floors from next week. We hear the news directly from horse’s mouth as he tweeted on his micro-blogging on wrapping up with ‘Maari’ and joining ‘VIP’ crew shortly. Samantha and Amy Jackson have been signed up for the female lead characters and others in the crew would be announced shortly.
