Title Reveal, Shoot Update & What’s Next
There’s more exciting news on the horizon. The film’s title — reportedly Chezhiyan, named after Dhanush’s character — is expected to be revealed this week, ahead of what was earlier thought to be a birthday announcement on July 28. Composer Sai Abhyankkar has already wrapped up two songs for the film.
Shoot is progressing at a brisk pace, with the production targeting a July 2026 wrap. Director Rajkumar Periasamy, fresh off the massive success of Amaran, brings his signature grounded yet intense storytelling to what promises to be a large-scale spy thriller.
After D55, Dhanush is expected to team up with Lubber Pandhu director Tamizharasan Pachamuthu for a Madurai-based action entertainer, and later with Siruthai Siva from January 2027. Sai Pallavi, meanwhile, will be seen next in the much-awaited Ramayana opposite Ranbir Kapoor and Yash.
