As for the cast, actor Sai Pallavi has been cast the female lead in this sequel.
Varalaxmi Sarathkumar too plays an important role in the film.
The film’s cast also includes Pandigai actor Krishna Kulasekaran as part of the supporting cast.
In addition, Malayalam star Tovino Thomas is said to be playing the antagonist.
Composer Yuvan Shankar Raja will be scoring for a Dhanush film after nearly a decade.
It must be noted that veteran composer ‘Isaignani’ Ilaiyaraaja sang a song last week for Maari 2.
With so much going on already for Maari 2, we can no doubt expect a cracker of a sequel from the team.
