The biggest news of the evening has been about Mani Ratnam’s next big multi-starrer Chekka Chivantha Vaanam. The big multi-starrer happens to have an interesting point to it. With CCV as it is shortly called, after 25 long years, Mani Ratnam has finally decided to break the streak and go with a production team apart from just Madras Talkies.

Ever since Roja happened, Mani Ratnam has always been making films under his own production banner Madras Talkies and some big banners like Reliance and Thenandal Studio Limited have only collaborated to release his respective films like Raavanan and Kaatru Veliyidai. However with CCV, he has finally decided to go with Lyca Productions, who will be jointly producing this venture with Madras Talkies. Stay tuned.
