Actor Daniel Balaji hadn’t been spotted much in Tamil films in the year which just slipped by. Many would agree that the actor’s last noteworthy performance was when he played Kishore’s younger brother in Dhanush’s Polladhavan. Though he starred in a few more films after that, he hasn’t able to deliver a telling performance in any of them.
Balaji, who played villain to Kamal in Gautham Menon’s Vettaiyadu Vilaiyadu, now gets to play the lead role in an upcoming film titled Marumugam which would be directed by newcomer Kamal. The film is produced by a new production house titled ‘Entertainment Unlimited’. Newcomer Ranya is paired opposite Balaji in the film. Anoop of Chikku Bhukku fame plays the second hero in the film.
Though new to Tamil, Kamal has already penned the story and screenplay of an award-winning Malaysian film titled 12 Hours. Balaji, who also played the lead role in Muthirai a few years back along with Nitin Sathya, gets to play the lead role this time with Anoop. Mumbai-based stunner Ranya is sure to give sleepless nights to Tami youths, it is said. The crew says that she not only possesses killer looks but also has some acting potential.
The triangular love-story involving the trio of Balaji, Anoop and Ranya has been narrated in an interesting by Kamal who says that “Every man has a hidden ‘face’ which doesn’t always display his ‘inner instincts’ and desires. The ‘hidden face’ of Balaji’s character in the film is sure to be a surprise to the actor’s fans. The character has the potential to terrorize the movie-goers, he adds.
Banuchander and Uma Padmanabhan play important roles in the film which is cinematographed by Kanagaraj and ha smusic by Agasthiya, a popular music director in Telugu who would be debuting in Tamil with this film.
