Dhanush is currently awaiting the release of Jagame Thandiram. He also has Aanand L Rai’s Atrangi Re and films with Ram Kumar, Selvaraghavan, and Karthik Naren in the pipeline. Earlier last week Dhanush left for the USA to commence shooting for his next Netflix-backed thriller The Gray Man. Dhanush was snapped at the airport and the photos are viral on social media.
Jagame Thandiram, which is directed by Karthik Subbaraj, will be Dhanush's next release. Dhanush recently commenced shooting for his next with director Karthick Naren and completed shooting the first schedule. The film, tipped to a thriller, also stars Malavika Mohanan, who is sharing screen space with Dhanush for the first time.
Dhanush began photoshoot for his next project with his brother and director Selvaraghavan recently. If the industry grapevine is anything to go by, this project is said to be a sequel to the filmmaker’s gangster drama Pudhupettai (2006), which helped Dhanush garner attention as an actor at the time. The film will be bankrolled by Kalaipuli S Thanu. This will be the fourth time that the Selvaraghavan-Dhanush duo is joining hands with composer Yuvan Shankar Raja. The brothers will also be teaming up for another project in 2023, which will be a sequel to Aayirathil Oruvan.
