‘Irandaam Ulagam’ from December?
Known for taking time between films, Selvaraghavan is going against the popular perception against him. The director, who will have the release of 'Mayakkam Enna' in the last week of November, will start his next venture 'Irandaam Ulagam' immediately.
Confirming this, Selva says, "Yes, I will start Irandaam Ulagam in December. The film will have Arya and Anushka in lead roles." He also clarified that 'Irandaam Ulagam' is not the title he originally planned for 'Mayakkam Enna'. "Only the media claimed it that way," he adds.
Talking about 'Mayakkam Enna', the maker of 'Pudupettai' and 'Aayirathil Oruvan', says, "It is about today's youngsters who believe that nothing is wrong. The film will peep into their world and bring to the light their way of approach towards life. Dhanush is a perfect fit to the role."
This is fourth time for Selva to work with his National Award winning brother, after 'Thulluvadho Ilamai', 'Kadhal Konden' and 'Pudupettai'. "The movie was about to hit the screens Deepavali itself, but got delayed due to my ill-health. All is well now," concludes the filmmaker.
