Blockbuster Tamil filmmaker Selvaraghavan has been announced to be playing a role alongside his brother and two-time National Award-winning actor Dhanush in their Naane Varuven. Reputed producer Kalaipuli S. Thanu, who is bankrolling the upcoming film under his V Creations banner, unveiled a special poster for the hit director on the occasion of his birthday on Saturday. In the poster, we see Selvaraghavan and Dhanush, with Kalaipuli Thanu stating that the filmmaker has scaled the peaks in direction while wishing him to reach new heights in his next acting gig in Naane Varuven alongside his brother, whose new look too has been revealed. 

Extending his gratitude to Kalaipuli Thanu, Selvaraghavan replied back saying he is grateful for the opportunity, while adding that he has merely obliged to his team's wish to be in Naane Varuven. He tweeted, "Thank you so much sir ! So Grateful  I'm at my teams disposal ! Their wish was for me to  be in   #NaaneVaruren . And their wish is my command". This latest update from Naane Varuven is massive and will no doubt come as a joyous news for Selvaraghavan and Dhanush fans, who have been wanting to witness them on the big screen together. Their collaborations in the past have spelled success at the box office and the expectations have been no less once again for their Naane Varuven, which is currently in production. Check out the announcement below: 

Selvaraghavan is directing and acting in Naane Varuven alongside Dhanush, which also had a poster released a few days back with the tagline - 'Duo: An Epic Journey'. It now remains to be seen whether the tagline is a reference to the star siblings and it will no doubt be interesting if that is indeed the case. What roles Selvaraghavan and Dhanush are playing in Naane Varuven at this point remains unknown considering the former is speculated to be the antagonist in the biggie 'Thalapathy' Vijay's Beast set to open in theatres in April. Apart from Beast and Naane Varuven, Selvaraghavan will be seen alongside Keerthy Suresh in the highly-anticipated Saani Kaayidham directed by Rocky fame Arun Matheswaran. 

Naane Varuven has Meyaadha Maan and Bigil fame Indhuja Ravichandran as the female lead, while the music is by chart-buster composer Yuvan Shankar Raja. The Dhanush, Selvaraghavan, and Yuvan trio is the biggest USP of the film as fans expect them to once again deliver a memorable film and an album on the lines of their previous ventures like Thulluvadho Illamai, Kaadhal Kondein, Pudhupettai, including Yaaradi Nee Mohini, which had the filmmaker write the screenplay. Naane Varuven's technical team features names like cinematographer Om Prakash, editor S. Bhuvanasundar and art director RK Vijai Murugan, with the stunts being choreographed by Dhilip Subbarayan.
