Actor Ashwin Kumar, who was last seen in Prabhu Solomon's Sembi, has signed his next project. He will be playing the male lead in the upcoming directorial of journalist-turned-filmmaker Arvindh Srinivasan, who made the suspense thriller Dejavu. 

Arvindh shares that the film will be a romantic thriller. "I have written the script in a way that it satisfies both the admirers of Ashwin and the ones who liked by debut Dejavu. I am confident that the film will promote both of us to the next league." 

The casting process for the yet-to-be-titled film is underway and Arvindh wishes to cast a female lead, who can add a lot of value to the project. "I am also on the verge of finalising my technical crew. You can expect updates regarding them in the upcoming days," he says. 

The Ashwin-Arvindh film will be bankrolled by Puzgazhendhi Annamalai's Zhen Studios, in association with Arka Entertainments.
