Dhanush,
the
National
award-winning
actor
and
his
elder
brother,
the
renowned
filmmaker
Selvaraghavan
are
joining
hands
once
again
for
the
upcoming
project
Naane
Varuven.
The
actor-director
duo
announced
their
next
outing
and
revealed
the
title
of
the
project
in
January
2021.
Interestingly,
the
team
has
now
revealed
a
major
update
on
Naane
Varuven.
The
highly
anticipated
Dhanush
starrer
is
all
set
to
start
rolling
on
August
20,
2021.
The
exciting
update
was
revealed
by
director
Selvaraghavan
himself,
with
a
social
media
post
on
June
23,
Wednesday.
The
filmmaker
shared
a
location
with
his
leading
man
Dhanush
and
the
team
on
his
official
handles
and
wrote:
"Excited!
@dhanushkraja
@theVcreations
@thisisysr
@Arvindkrsna."
Yuvan
Shankar
Raja,
the
music
composer
of
Naane
Varuven
retweeted
Selvaraghavan's
post
and
revealed
that
he
is
currently
working
on
the
second
song
for
the
project.
"Working
on
the
second
song
:)
can't
wait
for
you
guys
to
hear
it!" wrote
the
talented
musician
in
his
post.
Kalaipuli
S
Thanu,
the
senior
producer
who
bankrolls
Naane
Varuven
under
his
home
banner
V
Talkies,
stated
his
excitement
with
a
Twitter
post.
"Adored
and
Admired
combo,
@selvaraghavan
&
@dhanushkraja,
together
after
a
decade.
Elated
and
Proud
to
produce
this
movie.
@thisisysr
@Arvindkrsna," wrote
Thanu,
who
also
shared
the
announcement
poster.
Naane
Varuven,
which
is
said
to
be
a
stylish
action
thriller,
was
announced
after
Dhanush
and
Selvaraghavan
confirmed
their
ambitious
venture
AO2
aka
Aayirathil
Oruvan
2.
However,
the
action
thriller
is
going
on
floors
first,
as
AO2
is
a
massive
project
that
demands
at
least
two
years
of
extensive
pre-production.
As
per
the
reports,
Naane
Varuven
has
been
slated
to
hit
the
theatres
by
mid-2022,
if
things
go
as
planned.
AO2,
on
the
other
hand,
is
expected
to
be
released
only
by
2024,
which
makes
it
the
longest
production
of
Tamil
cinema
so
far.
Both
Yuvan
Shankar
Raja
and
Arvind
Krishna
are
also
a
part
of
AO2,
which
is
a
sequel
to
Selvaraghavan's
Aayirathil
Oruvan.
