According to sources, Kasada Thabara will be bringing out six different perspectives of one single incident. The shooting of this film is almost over and is expected to hit the marquee soon.
Meanwhile, a decade since the release of the film, its sequel of Chimbu Devan's Imsai Arasan 23am Pulikesi went on the floors in Chennai in 2017. The film marked the reunion of Vadivelu, director Shankar and Chimbu Devan, the trio behind the success of the original.
But Last April, Vadivelu chose to opt out of the project after being accused by the makers for not showing up on time for the shoot, following which the project was put on the back-burner.
