Earlier today (March 4), the Tamil audience was in for a big surprise with the announcement of director Mari Selvaraj's next film. After delivering two critically acclaimed blockbuster films in the form of Pariyerum Perumal and Karnan, Mari Selvaraj is now all set to begin his third flick which has been titled Maamannan. Mari Selvaraj has managed to bring in a stellar star cast for this movie and it has surely raised the expectation bar. Udhayanidhi Stalin will be seen playing the lead role, while Keerthy Suresh, Fahadh Faasil, and Vaigaipuyal Vadivelu are also a part of the star cast.

Vadivelu will be making his comeback in Tamil cinema with Naai Sekar Returns and it is quite interesting to see his name in the cast list. It is also going to be exciting to see a powerhouse performer like Fahadh Faasil in this movie, with Keerthy Suresh acting as the icing on the cake. Wait! The excitement isn't over yet! We have the legendary A.R.Rahman scoring music for this flick and it is truly going to be a treat for the fans. With just two films, Mari Selvaraj has become a force to reckon with and he has brought a highly promising and legendary team together for Maamannan and the hopes are already high.

The shooting of the film has also commenced following a special pooja that took place this morning. Udhayanidhi Stalin, Keerthy Suresh, Mari Selvaraj and the technical team took part in the launch event and the pictures from the event have now been released on social media, garnering the attention of the fans. Fahadh Faasil, Vadivelu, and A.R.Rahman were not seen in the event. This glimpse from the launch event of Maamannan is doing good rounds on social media. Details regarding the release plans of this movie are yet to be known, but we can expect the film to hit the screens towards the end of this year or early next year. Exciting days ahead!

Lights, Camera & Action!🎬🎥
