Siddharth in new avatar

Actor Siddharth, who impressed audiences band critics with his romantic flick, Kadhalil Sodhapavadhu Eppadi, is back with an action thriller this time. The movie, titled Udhayam- NH4, is produced by Dayanidhi Alagiri’s Meeka Entertainment and Vetrimaaran’s Grass Roots Film Company.

The first-look posters of the film are out and the producers are excited about their venture together for several reasons.

Dayanidhi is all praise for his music director  G V Prakash, who, he claims, has done magic with the music. Siddharth, he says, will be seen in new  role. Dayanidhi cherishes the fact  that he is making a film under his new banner, joining together the first few alphabets of the names of his maternal grandparents, Meenakshi and Karalan.

 Velraj is the cameraman, while the heroine is newbie Ashrita. For Vetrimaaran, the joy is double, since apart from being the co-producer, he is also writing the script and screenplay for the film.

What’s added to his joy is that his childhood friend from 8th grade, Manimaran, will be directing the film. The film is in the final stages of shooting. The  producers plan an audio launch in March, while the release is slated for June.
