The director also thanked producer Kathiresan, who launched him as a filmmaker with Polladavan, for inviting him to the audio launch of Rudhran.

The difference is small, but it demonstrates that Viduthalai - Part 1 was well received in the UK. 

"On behalf of our Viduthalai family, we express our sincere thanks to all our press, television and social media friends for their great cooperation and taking this work to the masses,"

The film is also a showcase for Soori, who delivers a career-best performance as Kumaresan, a naive and innocent man who transforms as he faces the harsh realities of life.

After witnessing the awe-inspiring first 10 minutes of a movie shot in a single, uninterrupted take, film buffs were left amazed.

It's unclear whether Vijay will play a farmer or a politician, but the film will undoubtedly be a gritty, realistic drama that highlights Vetrimaaran's unique touch.

Soori revealed that he was offered many comedy roles while shooting for Viduthalai Part 1, but he turned them down as he wanted to focus on his performance.

The writer himself broke his silence and posted on Facebook that he had no connection with the web series and that he was not consulted or informed by Vetri Maaran's team before using his novel title.

Based on the short story 'Thunaivan' by Jeyamohan, the film's unique style of storytelling will blend gritty realism with raw emotions and intense drama, following in the footsteps of Vetrimaaran's previous films.

It is anticipated that production on his next film, which has the working title NTR 30 and will be directed by Koratala Siva, will begin this month.
