Last seen playing an accidental gangster in Vetrimaaran’s Vada Chennai, Dhanush has a really exciting lineup of projects. Apart from the two other parts of Vada Chennai which are already in the pipeline, he has projects with Ratsasan director Ramkumar and Kodi director Durai Senthil Kumar.
He also has another project with Vetrimaaran which will be based on Tamil novel 'Vekkai'.
In a recent press meet, Dhanush revealed that he will begin shooting for Vetrimaaran’s next project in December. It will be a revenge drama that traces the fight of an oppressed community against those oppressing them. The novel has been written by Poomani.
Dhanush also awaits the release of Maari 2, in which he plays a local don and the project marks his reunion with director Balaji Mohan. He also has Gautham Menon’s campus-based action thriller Enai Noki Paayum Thota, which is struggling to hit the screens due to some financial issues involving the producer.
