For Dhanush, 2005 was a bad year. No hits
at all. If there was a hit in his life,
it was his marriage to Aishwarya, the
superstar's daughter.
Pudhupettai is the first movie that Dhanush
accepted after he became the Superstar’s
son-in-law. Athu oru kana kalam and Devathai
Kandain were movies he had accepted before
his marriage.
