Dhanush announces new feature Asuran, will be actor's fourth collaboration with Vetrimaaran

This particular year has been quite eventful for actor Dhanush. While the murky, gritty narrative of Vada Chennai brought him considerable praise, the fun-filled yet dangerous avatar of the local gangster in Maari 2 was well received.

Just a day after the release of Maari 2, the actor took to Twitter to announce his upcoming project.

The next feature titled Asuran will be helmed by Vetrimaaran. The actor also shared the first look poster on social media:

The poster depicts Dhanush as common man with a thick moustache and yellowing teeth. Fans were quick to react to the actor's announcement.
