Vishnu Vishal and Ramkumar's combo has been a highly successful one after they hit the bullseye with the 2014 period comedy film, Mundasupatti, which went on to become a sleeper hit, while the duo's second outing together, the slasher psychological thriller, Ratsasan, released in 2018, turned out to be a box office money-spinner. It is to be noted that the success of Ratsasan spawned two different remakes - Rakshasudu (2019) starring Bellamkonda Sreenivas in Telugu and Cuttputlli (2022) with Akshay Kumar in Hindi. For a while now, there have been speculations that Vishnu Vishal and Ramkumar would be coming back together for another film and this latest announcement will no doubt come as a big delight for Tamil cinema fans.
2022 was a good year for Vishnu Vishal after his performances in FIR and Gatta Kusthi garnered him appreciation, while the films also turned out to be big hits at the box office. The actor-producer has several projects in various stages of development among which include Mohandas, Aaryan, Lal Salaam, including FIR 2, which he had announced a few days back. Whether Vishnu Vishal-Ramkumar's new film is going to be Ratsasan 2, remains to be seen and only time will tell how the project shapes up.
