Earlier this month, after the success of Maari 2, Dhanush made an announcement about his next project, one for which he will be teaming up with Vetrimaaran. Just recently, the actor revealed that the title of the film would be Asuran. In fact, a first look was also shared by the actor on his social media account. And now, Dhanush has revealed the date when the film's shooting will kick off. Taking to Twitter, the actor stated, "We will start filming #asuran from January 26th !! A Vetrimaaran film. Looking forward to yet another adventure." With that, he tagged the filmmaker, Vetrimaaran, music composer GV Prakash and V Creations, who will be producing the film.

The first look of Dhanush from the film Asuran had him wear a black ensemble with holy ash spread across his forehead, a dark spot right in the centre of his brow and tobacco-stained teeth. His hair too had a different vibe to it. The versatile actor surely has found a new look and character to mesmerise us with. While Dhanush and Vetrimaaran have offered fans a good set of films to enjoy, this is the fourth time the filmmaker will be teaming up with music composer GV Prakash. The composer shared the news on his tweet too as he said, "#GV71 After the classic #aadukalam , #mayakkamenna , #polladhavan , #visaaranai and #theri joining hands for #Asuran with @dhanushkraja (4th time ) @VetriMaaran (4th time ) @theVcreations ( second time ) #asuran this will be #GV71"

Dhanush' most recent film, Maari 2, has earned him a lot of praise and immense box office success. Even the song, Rowdy Baby from the film has managed to outshine various Bollywood tracks! Let's hope even Asuran does him proud!
