On Thursday, filmmaker and actor Selvaraghavan took to his official X handle to share a behind-the-scenes image of the filming of Mental Manadhil. Replying to the X post, GV Prakash has assured fans that the film will be a treat to fans of Selvaraghavan's Aayirathil Oruvan and Mayakkam Enna.
He wrote, "Shoot mode with the legendary Selvaraghavan sir … The film and its music are going to be a special treat for #AayirathilOruvan and #MayakkamEnna fans."
While GV Prakash has composed music for Selvaraghavan's 2010 directorial Aayirathil Oruvan and 2011 film Mayakkam Enna, he is now set to act for the first time in the filmmaker's upcoming feature.
GV Prakash is also bankrolling Mental Manadhil under Parallel Universe Production House. The film stars Madhuri Jain as the female lead, alongside what the makers tout as a "talented ensemble cast". However, they are yet to reveal specific details about the rest of the cast in the film and their characters or its plot.
On the technical front, the film also has cinematographer Arun Ramakrishnan, editor Balaji, and art director RK Vijay Murugan. The film marks a return for Selvaraghavan to the full-fledged romance space after 7G Rainbow Colony (2004) and Aadavari Matalaku Arthale Verule, the 2007 Telugu film remade as Yaaradi Nee Mohini in Tamil.
GV Prakash was last seen in Blackmail as the lead. On the composing front, he recently composed music for Dhanush's Idli Kadai. Up next, he has a huge line-up of films, including Parasakthi, Vaadivaasal, Mask, Mandaadi, Suriya 46, Dhanush's D54, and Magudam, among others.
