Raayan: Dhanush unveils the title and first look of his 50th film

Dhanush, the versatile and popular actor, has revealed the title and first look of his 50th film, which was previously known as D50. The film, which is also written and directed by Dhanush, is titled Raayan, and features him in the role of a mechanic. The film, which has music by A.R. Rahman, is expected to release in Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi languages.

Dhanush’s second directorial venture after Pa Paandi

Raayan is Dhanush’s second directorial venture after his successful debut with Pa Paandi in 2017. The film, which starred Rajkiran and Revathi in the lead roles, was a heartwarming tale of an elderly stuntman who embarks on a road trip to reconnect with his long-lost love. The film also had Dhanush in a cameo role, and won him the Filmfare Award for Best Director – Tamil.

Raayan, on the other hand, is a different genre and scale from Pa Paandi, as it is said to be an action thriller with a social message. The film, which is produced by Sun Pictures, has a star-studded cast, including Kalidas Jayaram, Sundeep Kishan, SJ Suryah, Dushara Vijayan, and Aparna Balamurali. The film also marks the first collaboration between Dhanush and A.R. Rahman, who is composing the music for the film.

Dhanush’s intriguing first look as a mechanic

Dhanush took to his X account on Monday, February 19, to unveil the title and first look of Raayan. The poster shows Dhanush in a rugged avatar, sporting a shaved head, a moustache, and a red shirt. He is holding a sharp weapon in his hand, and has a fierce expression on his face. Behind him, Kalidas Jayaram and Sundeep Kishan can be seen with sickles in their hands. The poster also has a tagline that reads, “The mechanic who will fix the world”.

Dhanush’s fans and followers were thrilled to see the first look of Raayan, and showered praises and compliments on the actor and director. Many celebrities and industry insiders also congratulated Dhanush and wished him success for his 50th film. The poster also created a lot of curiosity and excitement among the audience, who are eager to know more about the film and its plot.
