Bigg Boss Tamil fame Vanitha Vijayakumar to join the cast of Arjun Das’s next

Vasanthabalan, who has helmed critically-acclaimed movies like Veyil, Angadi Theru and Kaaviya Thalaivan, is currently busy with his next project, which will also be produced by him, under the banner, Urban Boyz Studios. The untitled movie has Arjun Das and Dushara Vijayan playing lead roles, along with Arjun Chidambaram and veteran dancer Shanta Dhananjayan. The movie is touted to be a slice-of-the-life drama, similar to the director’s previous movies. Arjun, who was last seen in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Master, shot to fame with the director’s second film, Kaithi, which won him fans for his performance and baritone voice.

The latest addition to the film’s cast is actress Vanitha Vijayakumar who shot to fame with Bigg Boss Tamil, in recent times. This will mark Vanitha’s re-entry to Kollywood after her 2015 film, MGR Sivaji Rajini Kamal.

Arjun Chidambaram, who will be seen playing an important role in the film, was last seen in the role of an antagonist in Vinoth’s Ajith-starrer Nerkonda Paarvai. He is currently part of Mani Ratnam’s much-awaited magnum opus, Ponniyin Selvan, in the role of Madhurandhagan.
