Veteran filmmaker Ranjith has announced that he has directed a short film titled Madhavi.

The Nandanam director shared this news while addressing speculation over whether he filmed a new full-length feature after a poster of Madhavi was released online.

"A short film titled Madhavi will be presented before your eyes soon. The film happened at a time when theatres and other film-related activities got shut down," wrote Ranjith in a note shared on his social media page. "When the poster got shared, some doubted whether it is a feature-length film. No; it's a short film of 37-min duration."
