A few years back, Shankar' S Pictures and Lyca Productions were supposed to jointly produced the sequel of Imsai Arasan 23rd Pulikecei. Since, the first part turned out to be a smashing hit, fans were eager to see Vadivelu in full flow once again in the 2nd edition of this historical-comedy franchise.

Chimbudevan who directed the first part was roped in to direct the sequel with Ghibran taking care of the music department. But things didn’t pan out the way the makers wanted it to be. Vadivelu and the production house had some creative differences and the film came to a halt with only 9 days of shoot. The last update we had was that director/politician Seeman had been holding meeting with both the parties to sort out their differences.

Meanwhile, Chimbudevan has started to work on his next project produced by Venkat Prabhu’s Black Ticket Company in association with Trident Arts Ravindran. This project will be one of its kind featuring six different music directors, six different cinematographer and six different editors. It will have six different stories, all converging in the end.

Now Chimbudevan has issued a small statement about this upcoming project and the status of Imsai Arasan 2.
