Mari Selvaraj’s Pariyerum Perumal was a much talked about movie for its subject, and had gained the director applauds from critics as well as the audience. Reports were rife that Dhanush was in awe of the director’s talent so much so that he wanted to make a film with Mari. Even though the title of the movie has not been confirmed yet, the director, during an award function, mentioned that it would also deal with a relevant social issue as his previous movie that addressed discrimination based on caste. On the professional front, Lal was last seen in the big budget multilingual movie Saaho and the Mollywood movie Pengalila, one of the critically acclaimed films of 2019. He is also working in debutante director Mathukutty Xavier’s Helen.
