The wait is finally over! “Makkal Selvan” Vijay Sethupathi has officially confirmed that he is reuniting with the legendary Mani Ratnam for an upcoming project. But the excitement doesn’t stop there—the incredibly talented Sai Pallavi is set to play the female lead, marking her first-ever collaboration with both the master director and Sethupathi. In a recent interview, Sethupathi teased that this film will be “completely different” from their previous 2018 hit, Chekka Chivantha Vaanam, promising fans a fresh cinematic experience rather than a repeat of the past.
While plot details are being kept under wraps, insiders suggest this is a romantic entertainer—a genre Mani Ratnam is famous for perfecting. The film is expected to feature a soulful soundtrack by A.R. Rahman and will likely be produced by Madras Talkies in association with Lyca Productions. With shooting rumored to begin this summer, the pairing of Sethupathi’s raw versatility and Sai Pallavi’s natural charm has already made this one of the most anticipated movies in Indian cinema.
