For the very first time, Sivakarthikeyan is teaming up with celebrated filmmaker AR Murugadoss for the much-awaited action thriller Dil Madharaasi. The announcement has sparked massive excitement among fans, bringing together the powerhouse performer of Amaran and the visionary behind some of Indian cinema’s biggest blockbusters. Backed by Sri Lakshmi Movies, the film promises an adrenaline-charged spectacle, all set to leave a thunderous impact at the box office. Although we are excited to see Sivakarthikeyan collaborate with AR Murugadoss, the director had originally planned the Hindi version of the film with Shah Rukh Khan.

In a recent interview, director AR Murugadoss said, “I didn’t plan the whole film (Madharasi) with Shah Rukh Khan, but I did pitch the character to him long back. I told him 7-8 years ago, and even he liked it.”

He added further, “Back then, I only had the character…just an idea, not the full script. After watching the movie (Madharasi), you’ll realize what I meant by ‘character’. At that time, cinematographer Ravi K Chandran arranged a meeting for me with SRK. He was so sweet and said ‘we’ll do the film’, but the delay was very long, which is why it never materialized,”

Moreover, with Dil Madharaasi, the audiences are in for an incredible cinematic experience as Sivakarthikeyan and director AR Murugadoss join hands for the first time. This certainly makes the film a massive one worth waiting for.

The glimpse of the title has already ignited excitement for the film and the spectacle it promises to deliver. Sivakarthikeyan will be seen in an intense action avatar, leaving fans excited. The cinematography is handled by Sudeep Elamon, and the music score will be elevated by Anirudh Ravichander. Debuted with the famous Why This Kolaveri Di, he went on to compose music for blockbuster films like, Beast, Vikram, Jailer, Jawan, Leo, Indian 2, just to name a few amongst his notable work in couple of years.
