Asuran is loosely based on the award-winning book Vekkai, authored by Poomani.

GV Prakash Kumar has now been attached as the music composer of the Dhanush-starrer. The first look featured the actor as a simpleton with a heavy moustache and yellow-ing teeth. According to  The News Minute , Balaji Sakthivel plays the primary antagonist. “It’s going be a very big film; a 100 crore film which we plan to compress into a budget of Rs 70 crore. I’m aware I don’t have 70 crore market. Therefore, we’re looking at ways to exploit the market to earn profits on Rs 70 crore,” Vetrimaaran had told  Film Companion  in 2017. Dhanush and Vetrimaaran’s  fourth project  Asuran  will release worldwide on 4 October. The duo have previously worked together on Vada Chennai (2018), Pollathavan (2007), and Aadukalam (2011). They have jointly produced the 2011 comedy Kaaka Muttai and Visaranai in 2015. Check out posts on Asuran
