How Dhanush replaced Karthi!

Malai Nerathu Mayakkam, next film to be directed by Selvaraghavan, was speculated to be produced jointly by Selvaraghavan and Yuvan Shankar Raja. Unfortunate events that followed created a rift between the two and the project was shelved. However, Selvaraghavan has now decided to take up this venture. Though the initial choice was Karthi and Sandhya for

the lead roles, it has now been decided that Dhanush and Andrea will feature in Malai Nerathu Mayakkam.

Selvaraghavan is expected to take up this venture after he completes Aayirathil Oruvan. Dhanush, currently associated with the Telugu remake Arya, will work on this project concurrently.
