Dhanush-starrer Tamil gangster drama Vada Chennai, which will be made as part of a trilogy (3 films), went on the floors in Chennai on Wednesday (June 22).

"#Vadachennai - Trilogy. Started shooting for part one today. Director of 'Polladhavan', 'Aadukalam' @VetriMaaran. Bless us," Dhanush wrote on his official Twitter page.

The movie, which will be bankrolled by Lyca Productions and Wunderbar Films, will track 30 years in the life of a gangster.

The makers will film the first schedule at a large prison set, erected here in Binny Mills.

Dhanush is said to have set aside 200 days to shoot this project, which marks his third time collaboration with Vetrimaaran.
