Director Anantharajan, an erstwhile assistant of Samuthirakani and Vedigundu Murugesan-fame Moorthy, is making his debut with the Yogi Babu-starrer Kadalai Poda Oru Ponnu Venum, which also features television star Azhar in the lead. "It will be a complete laugh riot and Yogi Babu's humour will be on a different level," says Anantharajan, who has shot the film completely in Chennai. 

"Having worked with Vadivelu sir, I can surely say that Yogi Babu will also receive similar love from the audience. In many scenes, his spontaneity and creativity reminded me of Vadivelu sir. It is important for a comedian to get the necessary space to be creative," adds the director, who shares that the film revolves around a moping Azhar, who is worried about not having a girl to flirt with. 

Apart from Yogi Babu, the film also features Senthil, Mansoor Ali Khan, Lollu Sabha Manohar, and Swaminathan, who play characters that Azhar meets in the span of a night. 

"Yogi Babu plays a rowdy villain with a posse of five women henchmen, who double up as his wives, and then there is Mansoor sir as an elder statesman, who still believes he is a king. In between all this, there is Azhar and his fixation with a mobile phone, which will be a gamechanger in the film," says Anantharajan. 

With minimal patchwork left to be completed, Kadalai Poda Oru Ponnu Venum, produced by Robinson of RG Media, will be sent to the censors soon.
