With two consecutive hit films in his kitty, Karthi is currently on cloud 9. His cop-film Theeran: Adhigaaram Ondru was a super hit at the box-office while it also succeeded critically. He neatly followed it up with Kadaikutty Singam, the successful family drama.
His next film, Karthi 17 - tentatively titled as Dev has Rakul Preet in the lead role and is being helmed by a debutant, Rajath. Though the title has not been officially announced, we have often seen the cast and crew themselves referring to it as Dev.
