Meanwhile, Gautham also has Joshua: Imai Pol Kaakha in the pipeline. The film starring Puppy fame Varun in the lead is tipped to be a highly action-packed story of a bodyguard, produced by Ishari K. Ganesh of Vels Film International. Reports initially suggested that the film would be based on the script of Yohan: Adhyayam Ondru, which was originally planned with Vijay in 2011, but Menon denied this and claimed it was a separate story.
Recently it was announced that Gautham Menon and Silmabarasan are all set to join hands for the third time for a project to be bankrolled by Vels Film International. Menon also awaits the release of Vikram’s Dhruva Natchathiram, which has been struggling to release for quite some time now.

Touted to be a political thriller, Kalyani Priyadarshan plays the female lead in this flick with SJ Suryah, Bharathiraja, SA Chandrasekhar, Karunakaran, Premgi Amaren, and Manoj Bharathiraja forming the rest of the star cast.
Venkat Prabhu also awaits the release of his debut web series Live Telecast starring Kajal Aggarwal. The series is set to premiere on the Disney+Hotstar VIP OTT platform on February 12. Touted to be a horror-thriller the series also has Vaibhav and Anandhi in pivotal roles.
