With the critically acclaimed film Chithha, headlined by Siddharth, Kollywood director S.U. Arun Kumar grabbed the spotlight. The filmmaker neatly depicted a sensitive issue, and the movie helped Siddharth make a good comeback after a string of failures. After Chithha, S.U. Arun Kumar worked with Vikram on the action drama Veera Dheera Sooran.
However, despite decent reviews, the Vikram starrer ended as an underperformer at the box office. According to the latest buzz in Kollywood circles, S.U. Arun Kumar is set to join hands with Ulaganayagan Kamal Haasan. It is said that Arun Kumar’s narration left Kamal impressed, which made the star give his nod.
The word is that the project will be wrapped quickly and hit the big screens in early 2026. Kamal Haasan’s home banner, Raaj Kamal Films International (RKFI), is expected to bankroll the project. Kamal recently faced massive setbacks with Indian 2 and Thug Life, both turning out to be major disasters, leading to heavy trolling of the legendary actor. Will Kamal now make the right move and redeem himself? Let’s see.
