Actor Dhanush is on a sequel signing spree. As he awaits the release of Tamil film VIP 2, he is also gearing up to commence work on the sequel to his 2015 Tamil blockbuster Maari, a source said.
On Monday, director Balaji Mohan confirmed via a tweet that Maari 2, is set to go on floors soon.
In Maari,, Dhanush played a dhoti-clad, mustache-twirling local rowdy.
"Dhanush sir is currently busy with multiple projects. He is finishing work on his Hollywood project and upon completion; he will resume work on Gautham Menon's Enai Nokki Paayum Thota. He will start shooting for Maari 2 from September," a source close to Dhanush told IANS.
Dhanush will bankroll Maari 2, and the team is hopeful of bringing it to theaters for next year's Sankranti festival.
The cast and crew are yet to be finalised.
