Dhanush is busy completing his current project with Bharat Bala titled Mariyaan under Aascar Ravinchandran production. Bharat Bala narrated a one-liner to Dhanush at the National Award ceremony in Delhi, where the actor had gone to collect an award for his performance in Aadukalam. Impressed by Bala’s narration, the actor agreed to play the lead role in this film. A. R. Rahman who had previously collaborated with Bharat Bala for the Vande Mataram music video, has also been roped in.
The producer is extremely thrilled with the outcome of Mariyaan till now and has expressed that Dhanush And Rahman Excelled in Mariyaan. Few more awards in their kitty, probably. The curious title Mariyaan means ‘one without death’. Parvathi Menon is cast opposite Dhanush in this movie.
