It's
confirmed!
Makkal
Selvan
Vijay
Sethupathi
will
be
joining
hands
with
director
Seenu
Ramasamy
for
the
fifth
time.
As
per
Times
of
India
report,
the
director
has
confirmed
his
collaboration
with
the
versatile
actor
and
revealed
that
the
project
will
be
backed
by
producer
Kalaipuli
S
Thanu.
Seenu
also
added
that
he
had
recently
met
the
actor
and
discussed
the
project
with
him.
Revealing
that
he
is
presently
in
Madurai
to
scout
locations
for
a
film,
the
director
said
that
his
project
with
Sethupathi
will
go
on
floors
post
his
current
commitment.
He
was
quoted
as
saying,
"Right
now,
I
have
begun
pre-production
work
on
another
film
with
a
young
hero.
While
I
cannot
reveal
details
about
this
project
at
the
moment,
I
can
reveal
that
I
am
presently
in
Madurai
to
scout
locations
for
that
and
I
am
also
giving
the
final
touches
to
the
script.
I
will
work
on
Sethu's
film
after
wrapping
up
this
one.
However,
the
script
of
that
film
is
complete
and
Sethu
has
also
read
through
it
and
liked
it.
It
will
be
somewhat
different
from
the
films
I've
done
so
far
as
it
will
be
an
action
thriller."
Notably,
Seenu
is
often
credited
as
the
director
who
introduced
Sethupathi
as
leading
actor
in
his
2010
rural
drama
Thenmerku
Paruvakaatru.
Interestingly,
the
duo's
two
films
Idam
Porul
Yaeval
and
Maamanithan
are
yet
to
be
released.
The
actor
and
director
have
earlier
joined
forces
for
the
2016
coming
of
age
film
Dharma
Durai.
On
a
related
note,
Seenu
Ramasamy
has
also
disclosed
that
their
Idam
Porul
Yaeval
might
take
the
OTT
route,
as
its
producer
Lingusamy
is
in
talks
to
release
the
film
on
a
streaming
platform.
It
is
to
be
noted
that
the
film's
release
was
delayed
owing
to
the
COVID-19
pandemic
and
the
subsequent
lockdown.
