Looks
like
Pongal
2021
is
going
to
be
a
year
to
remember
for
Simbu
fans.
The
celebrated
actor
is
gearing
up
to
lock
horns
with
Vijay
at
the
box
office,
as
his
highly
awaited
film
Eeswaran
releases
on
January
14,
on
the
occasion
of
Pongal.
Thalapathy's
Master
on
the
other
hand
will
release
on
January
13.
Well,
with
the
fans
awaiting
the
release
of
Simbu's
rural
entertainer,
looks
like
another
Pongal
treat
is
getting
ready,
as
we
hear
that
the
motion
poster
of
Maanaadu
will
be
released
on
January
14.
Though
there
is
no
official
confirmation
regarding
the
same,
the
fans
are
elated
and
are
awaiting
to
witness
the
actor's
extravaganza.
Directed
by
Venkat
Prabhu,
Maanaadu's
next
schedule
will
begin
soon
after
Simbu
completes
his
pilgrimage
to
Sabarimala.
The
masala
entertainer
marks
the
actor's
second
collaboration
with
the
director
after
the
2010
film
Goa.
Simbu
played
a
cameo
in
the
comedy
film.
Backed
by
Suresh
Kamatchi
under
his
banner
V
House
Productions,
the
film
has
music
composed
by
Yuvan
Shankar
Raja.
On
the
other
hand,
Simbu's
Eeswaran
will
feature
Nidhhi
Agerwal
as
the
leading
lady.
Directed
by
Suseenthiran,
the
film
will
also
have
veteran
director
Bharathiraja
playing
a
key
role.
Interestingly,
Silambarasan
has
undergone
a
major
physical
transformation
for
the
film,
which
is
said
to
be
one
of
the
promising
releases
of
the
year.
Touted
to
be
a
village
drama,
Eeswaran
is
bankrolled
by
KV
Durai's
D
Company,
in
association
with
MDM
Sharfuddin.
