Thalapathy Vijay is currently busy shooting for his next, Varisu which is directed by Vamshi Paidipally of Maharshi and Thozha fame. Varisu will be a family entertainer that will be high on emotions and family sentiments. There have been various speculations regarding the storyline of Varisu and one among them was a story that dealt with a murder of a powerful billionaire (Sarath Kumar), and how his adopted son (Vijay) takes charge to find the men who killed his father and stop them taking over his business empire. These unauthentic reports made the fans worried and confused and they garnered wide attention on social media.

However, lyricist Vivek who is a part of Varisu, cleared the air with a funny meme, putting a full stop to all the baseless ideas doing rounds as the story of Varisu.

Produced by Dil Raju under the banner of Sri Venkateswara Creations, the film will have music composed by Thaman S, while the cinematography and editing departments are headed by Karthick Palani and Praveen KL respectively.

Rashmika Mandanna plays the female lead, marking her second film in Tamil after Karthi's Sulthan.
