In a recent promotional event for the upcoming Tamil film ‘Raayan’, Prakash Raj has announced that he will be starring in the next directorial venture of Dhanush. And Nithya Menen will also be there in an important role. Previously these two actors worked together in Mani Ratnam’s romantic drama ‘OK Kanmani’.
‘Raayan’ is a big budget action thriller that has fired up huge anticipation among fans. Dhanush has both directed and starred in it and actors like Dushara Vijayan, Aparna Balamurali, Sundeep Kishan are there in major roles. A. R. Rahman’s music is one of the USPs of the movie. Before ‘Raayan’, Dhanush has previously directed ‘Paa Pandi’ in 2017 with much critical acclaim. His Next directorial ‘Nilavuku En Mel Ennadi Kobam’ will be a romantic comedy in which he was approached to star, but he later borrowed the script and decided to direct it himself. The movie starring Prakash Raj and Nithya Menen will probably be his third movie as a director.
It is not known yet whether Prakash Raj will be playing the lead role in the movie or not. It is possible that Dhanush himself might play the lead. But ‘Nilavuku En Mel Ennadi Kobam’ does not have him as an actor and it seems that Dhanush is starting to take the job of direction pretty seriously and there is a chance that he will focus completely on the direction for the fourth movie.
