CHENNAI: Dhanush's 55th film, which is directed by Rajkumar Periasamy, was officially launched in November, 2024. The film's progress faced problems due to the production issues.

In a statement, the team said, "It is a matter of great pride and honour for both production houses to be backing this magnum opus, which is slated for release later this year. The project brings together a powerful creative team and promises a compelling cinematic experience."
