Last year,\u00a0Indian Express<\/a>\u00a0reported that\u00a0Dhanush will headline Isaignani Ilaiyaraaja’s biopic<\/a>. The report cited a prominent journalist who disclosed, \u201cExclusive news: Dhanush confirmed to essay Music Maestro Ilaiyaraaja in his biopic! According to trusted sources, it is confirmed that National Award-winning star Dhanush will be playing Isaignani Ilaiyaraaja in his biopic. Sources added that the movie will go on floors in 2024 and will release in 2025. This is likely to be a huge project given that it is about one of India’s music legends and has uber-talented Dhanush playing the role. The project is said to be produced by Connekkt Media.\u201d<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the report mentioned that singer Yuvan Shankar Raja, son of Isaignani Ilaiyaraaja, had expressed his desire a few months ago for Dhanush to portray his father in the biopic.<\/p>\n

\u201cA few months back Yuvan Shankar Raja had said that he would love to see Dhanush play his father Ilaiyaraaja in his biopic and the stars seem to have aligned. This is the first biopic Dhanush will be seen in and it’s an iconic role. The\u00a0Captain Miller\u00a0star<\/em> is one of Ilaiyaraaja’s biggest fans and this role will definitely bag him some awards I think.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dhanush was last seen in Arun Matheswaran’s\u00a0Captain Miller.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
