Vadivelu to play a pivotal role in Mari Selvaraj's next with Udhayanidhi and Fahadh Faasil

It is known that Mari Selvaraj, whose acclaimed film, Dhanush-starrer Karnan (streaming on Amazon Prime Video), which released earlier this year, is ready for the shooting of his next. He has already roped in Udhayanidhi and Fahadh Faasil to play key roles for the untitled project. 

The latest is that ace comedian Vadivelu will also have an important role to play in the movie which is all set to go on floors in a month's time. The news has come across as an exciting news for the fans of the veteran comedian as he has been away from the limelight for more than four years.

Fans of Mari Selvaraj, who debuted with Pariyerum Perumal (streaming on Amazon Prime Video), are eagerly waiting to know what the filmmaker has in store for them. The third directorial project of him was supposed to commence earlier, but we heard that he was waiting for the dates of Fahadh. 

The Mollywood actor has been busy with Kamal Haasan's Vikram, which has Lokesh Kanagaraj at the helm. Udhayanidhi, who is expected to play the protagonist in Selvaraj's movie, has Nenjukku Needhi, the remake of Article 15 (streaming on Netflix), under Arunraja Kamaraj's direction.   

Meanwhile, the makers of Naai Sekar Returns, which is considered as the comeback vehicle of Vadivelu, is yet to come up with an announcement on its release date. Its first look poster was released a couple of months ago. 

It has to be seen if the movie directed by Suraaj will be the veteran's first project to hit the screens after the four-year hiatus. The film is a spine-off to Suraaj's Thalai Nagaram which released in 2006.
