A promise made years ago

The idea for 'An Ordinary Man' actually started many years ago. During the launch of Ravi Mohan Studios at the Chennai Trade Centre last year, Ravi Mohan announced plans to produce several films and direct one himself. At the event, Yogi Babu shared an interesting memory. He said the two had spoken about doing a film together while working on 'Comali.' Many people forget such plans over time, but Ravi Mohan remembered his promise even after six years. He later decided to make it happen with ;An Ordinary Man,' giving Yogi Babu the lead role.

However, the team tagging Kenishaa Francis in the announcement hints that she may contribute as a singer. The film is the second project from Ravi Mohan's production after 'Bro Code,' which is still under production. Ravi Mohan was recently seen playing the antagonist in Sudha Kongara’s 'Parasakthi' alongside Sivakarthikeyan, where his performance received praise. Apart from this directorial debut, he also has films like 'Genie,' 'Bro Code,' and 'Karathey Babu' in his upcoming lineup.
