The Vada Chennai combo of Dhanush and Vetri Maaran come together once again for Asuran. The masala entertainer is deemed to be a far more commercial fare that their last thrilling gangster saga. While we expected them to continue with the Vada Chennai franchise, Asuran looks like a breather in between that look to capitalise on Dhanush's knack of playing rural characters with unbridled energy. Malayalam actress Manju Warrier is the female lead in the film. Asuran: Malayalam Actress Manju Warrier to Play The Female Lead in Dhanush's Next.

The makers of Asuran have launched a new poster of the film on social media on January 25. The poster has a bearded Dhanush, wearing a vest and a lungi, jumping at someone in a wild manner with a spear in his hand. We are really curious to know who he is attacking with that fierce aggression. Is it an animal or a man? Or something else? Does the Asuran of the title stand for Dhanush's character or the one he is attacking? Vada Chennai Movie Review: Dhanush's Gangster Drama Is A Masterpiece We Haven't Seen In A While.

Dhanush will be starting the shoot of Asuran from January 26. This is the fourth movie from the Dhanush - Vetri Maaran combo, after Polladhavan, Aadukalam (for which Dhanush won the National award for the Best Actor) and, of course, Vada Chennai. Popular music composer GV Prakash will be scoring the songs in the film.
