Spirited Dhanush pairs with bubbly Meera
Dhanush whose career appeared to take off very steeply came down with a bang after his initial success.

He is in an unenviable position right now and is desperate to seek victory. A period of lull doomed on his film career after the initial taste of success. Wrong choice of films proved critical for him.

Of course, there was no dearth of excitement in his life. Marriage to Super star Rajnikanth’s daughter Aishwarya spiced up his life. Pudupettai directed by his brother Selva Raghavan did not rise up to the expectation. It fizzled out as a pre-release hype. He is at the cross roads of his career right now.
At this juncture, it is not surprising that he feels elated to be in the new film titled ‘Parattai alias Azhagu Sundaram’, a remake of the Kannada blockbuster Jogi. The film is to be directed by dance master Raju Sundaram. He is the latest to join the bandwagon of dance masters wielding the megaphone after Prabhu Deva, Lawrence Raghavendra and Farah Khan in the Bollywood.

‘Parattai alias Azhagu Sundaram’ has National award winner Meera Jasmine with Dhanush for the first time.

Archana who won the national award for Balu Mahendra’s ‘Veedu’ plays Dhanush’s mother. Her role is supposedly a pivotal one in this film. Dhanush has a stiff competition from Meera and Archana who are known for their acting potentials. It is heard that he is taking voice modulation classes from Rajnikanth, his father-in-law.

The off-beat title of the movie springs from the name of the character that Dhanush plays
His name in the first half is Azhagu Sundaram and in the second half he changes into a don named Parattai. Incidentally Parattai is the name of his legendary father-in-law in the film 16 Vayadhinile directed by Bharathi Raja. While the film is being produced by Kayaar, Yuvan Shankar Raja scores the music, Jeeva’s assistant Arjun Jana is the cinematographer. Reliable sources say that the muhurat of the movie is scheduled for August 31 in a remarkably different manner.
Shriya
Dhanush believes that this movie would be a turning point in his film career and a wholesome entertainer for the entire family.

Besides that Dhanush has almost completed ‘Thiruvilayadal’ with Shriya. He also features in NH47 produced by Salem A Chandrashekar and directed by debutant Vettri
