Actor Nitin Sathyaa, whose last lead role was in Chennai 600028 II, is making a comeback to playing the lead in Koduvaa. The film's production kickstarted earlier today with a formal pooja. Directed by debutant filmmaker Suresh Sathaiah, the film stars Bigg Boss-fame Samyuktha in her first film as the female lead. 

Speaking about the film, Nitin Sathyaa says, "It was a tailor-made script which I didn't want to miss. It's a rural script which is something I haven't tried before. Koduvaa is about the daily life of a person from Ramanathapuram and it will be along the lines of many hit films based on the Madurai backdrop."

Koduvaa also stars Aadukalam Naren, Murugadoss, Subbu Panchu, Subathra and Ratsasan Vinod. The film's music is by Dharan Kumar and Karthik Nallamuthu is in charge of cinematography. Bankrolled by Dwarka Productions, the film will go on floors from September 5 and will be completed in a single schedule.
