Celebrated director Mari Selvaraj, who is currently making waves with the highly anticipated Diwali release of 'Bison Kaalamaadan' starring Dhruv Vikram, has officially confirmed two massive upcoming projects that have sent shockwaves across the Kollywood industry. The director, known for his compelling, story-first approach in blockbusters like Karnan and Maamannan, is set to reunite with National Award-winning actor Dhanush for the star’s 56th film, tentatively titled D56. Selvaraj described the Karnan duo's reunion film as an "important project" and a "milestone" in his career, stating that it’s the long-delayed 'big project' they signed during the filming of Karnan. Industry whispers further suggest that this Dhanush-Mari Selvaraj collaboration is being backed by Vels Film International and will feature music by the legendary A.R. Rahman, promising a grand cinematic spectacle.
Adding to the excitement, Mari Selvaraj also confirmed that he will be directing the debut film of Inbanithi, the son of politician and former actor Udhayanidhi Stalin and the grandson of Chief Minister M.K. Stalin. This move highlights Selvaraj's commitment to prioritizing a strong, unique narrative, a strategy he believes builds immense confidence, especially for a newcomer like Inbanithi. Fans and trade analysts anticipate that the Mari Selvaraj-Inbanithi project will be a quality launchpad, continuing the director's tradition of delivering socially relevant and powerful Tamil cinema content.
