D55: Amaran director Rajkumar Periasamy opens up on next with Dhanush, says movie will feature tale of ‘unsung heroes’
In a recent interview, Amaran director Rajkumar Periasamy unveiled details about his next film starring Dhanush in the lead!
Dhanush is completely occupied with his acting and directorial ventures, with several films lined up. The actor is next set to appear in the lead role for Amaran director Rajkumar Periasamy’s upcoming flick. The filmmaker recently shared details about the project in an interview.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, the director explained how his recent venture, Amaran, starring Sivakarthikeyan, and the tentatively titled D55 are distinct from one another. He said, “My next is with Dhanush sir. My previous film was about a hero—I mean, he was a gallantry award recipient—but the next one will be about many unsung heroes. They are the people who blend into society, and the protagonist will represent them.”
The project's announcement was earlier made by Dhanush via his X (formerly Twitter) handle. In a picture posted from the puja ceremony of the movie, the actor expressed his excitement about joining hands with director Rajkumar for this venture.
