Bigg Boss 3 title winner, Mugen Rao will be making his debut as a lead actor with the upcoming Tamil film, Velan, directed by debutant Kavin. The film is currently in the final stages of post production and it is expected to release in theatres when the Covid situation gets better. Velan's first look poster was released a few days before and it opened to a good response from the fans and filmbuffs. Meanwhile, the makers have been releasing character look posters of the main cast of the movie for the last few days. On that note, Mugen Rao's character look poster has now been released today (May 24) and it has gone viral among the fans.

Mugen will play the titular character, Velan and it is going to be refreshing to see him in a rural family entertainer. The newly released first look poster looks vibrant and colourful and has a festive mood to it. From what we see, Velan promises to be an entertaining commercial family drama. Mugen's makeover is interesting and he looks charming and fit. Let us hope that the film gives a solid breakthrough for Mugen in Tamil cinema. Velan is produced by Kalaimagan Mubarak under the banner of Skyman Films International and has music scored by Gopi Sundar.

The film has cinematography and editing by Gopi Jagadeeswaran and Sarathkumar respectively. Meenakshi Govindarajan plays the female lead in Velan which also has Soori, Prabhu, Thambi Ramaiah, Hareesh Peradi, Joe Malloori, Billy Murali, Prankster Rahul, Brigida, Maria Vincent, and others in supporting roles. Velan will deal with the love story between a Tamil guy (Mugen Rao) and a Malayali woman (Meenakshi Govindarajan) and let us hope that the film turns out to be an interesting watch.
