The much awaited official announcement about the heroine of Dhanush's Maari 2 has finally come.

It would be the Premam sensation Sai Pallavi who would be pairing up with Dhanush for this sequel, directed by Balaji Mohan. This would be Sai Pallavi's second Tamil film, who is already acting in director Vijay's Karu. Director Balaji Mohan tweeted, "The vibrant @Sai_Pallavi92 is the #HeroineofMaari2 Its a character thats right at the heart of the story of #Maari2 #SaiPallavi #Bilingual"
 

This sequel is said to have more importance for the leading lady, compared to the first part, and we can expect a performer like Sai Pallavi to pull off this role with ease.
