Mani Ratnam’s next to feature Silambarasan again?
It has been widely reported that Mani Ratnam’s next directorial venture after Thug Life will feature Silambarasan in the lead role.
While Silambarasan is also part of the ensemble cast in Thug Life, which is set to release on June 5, 2025, this upcoming film will mark his first time as a solo lead in a Mani Ratnam film.
The new project is said to be a soulful romantic drama, a shift from the action genre of Thug Life. Actress Rukmini Vasanth is reportedly cast as the female lead.
This will be Silambarasan’s third collaboration with Mani Ratnam, following Chekka Chivantha Vaanam and Thug Life.
Pre-production for the romantic drama is reportedly in full swing.
