CS Amudhan is widely known for directing the popular Tamil spoof films, Tamizh Padam and Tamizh Padam 2.

After making an impressive mark with his humour, Amudhan has shifted his gear towards a thriller and it is going to be exciitng to see how this major genre shift works for him. Amudhan took to his Twitter page to share his thoughts about the project. He tweeted, "So my next film is with my college-buddy @vijayantony & will be produced by @FvInfiniti. Pre-production is underway & the rest of a huge cast is being finalised. The film is a crime/action-thriller & as befits a Vijay Antony film a decent & positive title will soon be announced".

Talking about the project in an official statement, Vijay Antony said, “It’s an honour to be associated with Infiniti Film Ventures for the third time. The producers of Infiniti Film Ventures always crave unique content-driven scripts with entertaining factors. It is obvious with the project that we are already associated with - Kodiyil Oruvan and Khaki. When director CS Amudhan narrated the script, I was completely astonished to see him shifting the paradigms from sensational spoof-based movies to thriller zone. As a matter of fact, I could see his erstwhile image eclipsing from the moment he started narrating this story. I am sure the audience will celebrate him a filmmaker in the Thriller genre also after the film’s release.”

This film is expected to go on floors from September 2021, but official details are awaited. Vijay Antony's next release in Tamil will be Kodiyil Oruvan, which is tentatively planned to release in May, for the Ramzan weekend. Kodiyil Oruvan is directed by Ananda Krishnan and has Aathmika playing the female lead.
