One of the highly-awaited upcoming projects is Venkat Prabhu’s directorial 'Maanaadu', featuring Silambarasan aka STR in the lead. Bankrolled by Suresh Kamatchi under the banner V House Productions, the film was slated to be released on November 4 later this year, coinciding with the festive date of deepavali.
At a time when dubbing works have been going on in full swing, Producer Suresh Kamatchi announced in a statement few days back that the movie wouldn't be released for Deepavali as scheduled, but will be postponed to November 25. Director Venkat Prabhu too took to Twitter to confirm the same. The film has averted clash with Rajinikanth's much-awaited 'Annaatthe' and Vishal-Arya's 'Enemy'.
The latest update from the film has come from SJ Suryah himself. The actor who is expected to play the villain in the film, said that he's covered eight days of dubbing work for his part in just five five days.
"I almost covered 8 days dubbing work of my part for “MAANAADU”,in 5 days. My naadi, narambu, neck, back, spine and throat are gone & begging me to give minimum 10 days rest (heavy work-valli pinnudhu) but after seeing the output, tell you all one thing DIWALI NOV 25TH THANDA." (Translation: Heavy work, pain is too much; Diwali is on November 25th only). This tweet has raised expectations for the film among fans.
