Samuthirakani is the latest addition to Vishal’s next

Samuthirakani, who played pivotal roles in a handful of films last year, will play Vishal’s brother in his next untitled film directed by Suseenthiran. The film is set in the backdrop of Madurai. While Vishal plays an undercover cop, he is pitted against a newcomer from Bangalore who plays the antagonist.

The addition of Samuthirakani is a strong value to the cast and the expectations for the film are bound to rise now. Produced by Vendhar Movies, the film has Kajal Aggarwal playing the female lead. While Velraj handles camera, Imman has been roped in to compose music.

An earlier version of this article said Samuthirakani plays the villain in the film. It has been corrected.
