Silambarasan and Mohanlal join hands for THIS Malayalam director's film

Silambarasan, one of the most skilled actors in the South, announced his next film as the lead with director Desingh Periyasamy. The film, tentatively titled 'STR 48', is yet to hit the floor. Meanwhile, the busy actor has committed to a supporting role in Mani Ratnam's directorial 'Thug Life', featuring Kamal Haasan.

The latest buzz on social media about Silambarasan has grabbed major attention. The South actor is said to be teaming up with Malayalam director Judu Anthany Joseph, who delivered the blockbuster survival thriller '2018' with Tovino Thomas. Silambarasan's film with Judu Anthany Joseph is planned to be made on a huge budget, with initial talks for the film currently underway. Mohanlal is likely to play a crucial role in the film, making it even bigger. We eagerly await the official launch of the film.

Desingh Periyasamy's directorial will mark Silambarasan's 48th film, while 'Thug Life' will be the actor's 49th. Silambarasan had previously planned to direct his 50th film as an actor. We will have to wait and see if he changes his mind about his milestone film to team up with Judu Anthany Joseph or if the mega-budget film will be his next after his 50th film. This latest report has excited fans, who are eager to see the fresh duo's film take off.

Silambarasan will commence shooting for 'STR 48' with Desingh Periyasamy soon, where he will play a dual role in the period action drama.
