In
2017,
noted
director
Mani
Ratnam
suffered
a
bit
of
a
setback
when
his
much-hyped
Kaatru
Veliyidai
underperformed
at
the
box
office
and
failed
to
impress
the
critics.
Featuring
the
talented
Karthi
and
the
lovely
Aditi
Rao
Hydari
in
the
lead
roles,
the
hard-hitting
drama
boasted
of
some
memorable
performances;
however,
this
could
not
prevent
it
from
becoming
a
commercial
failure.
With
Kaatru
Veliyidai
behind
him,
Mani
Ratnam
is
now
gearing
up
for
the
release
of
Chekka
Chivantha
Vaanam.
The
film
is
a
sensitive
drama
and
this
has
helped
it
become
the
talk
of
the
town.
Now,
here
is
some
awesome
news
for
those
who
are
awaiting
the
film's
release.
In
an
exciting
development,
the
latest
poster
of
Chekka
Chivantha
Vaanam
has
been
released.
And,
needless
to
say,
it
is
quite
good.
In
it,
noted
actor
Arvind
Swami
can
be
seen
in
an
intense
avatar
that
he
carries
off
like
a
boss.
His
intense
expression
and
the
bearded
look
work
wonders
for
his
new
avatar
and
sure
add
a
new
dimension
to
it.
In
case
you
did
not
know,
Arvind
Swami
became
a
household
name
because
of
his
performances
in
Mani
Ratnam's
classics
Roja
and
Bombay.
As
such,
the
buzz
is
that
Chekka
Chivantha
Vaanam
might
see
him
deliver
the
performance
of
a
lifetime.
On
a
related
note,
Chekka
Chivantha
Vaanam
is
a
multi-starrer
and
might
turn
out
to
be
the
biggest
film
of
the
year.
It
also
features
Simbu,
Vijay
Sethupathi
and
Jyothika.
Mollywood
star
Fahadh
Faasil
was
also
a
part
of
the
film;
however,
he
opted
out
and
was
replaced
by
Arun
Vijay.
