The makers of actor Atharvaa Murali's upcoming romantic drama Idhayam Murali dropped the first single of the film on Friday.

Titled 'Idhayaa,' it is about the protagonist and his love and how he gets disillusioned with love and calls himself a 'Yaathiri' or a traveller who cannot remain attached. The lyrical video shows several stages of the male lead's life, his romantic relationships. The song is made in such a way that it gives the 90s kids a nostalgic ride by capturing the old gadgets like the PlayStation, Walkman, vintage personal computer, and then pop idols like Shaktimaan and former cricketer Sourav Ganguly.

Besides Atharvaa, the film stars Kayadu, Thaman (in his first film role as an actor after Shankar's Boys), Natty, Preity Mukundhan, Pragya, Angeline, and Yashashree. The cast also includes Sudhakar and Dravid from the Parithabangal YouTube channel and content creator Niharika NM.

Behind the screen, the film is directed by Aakash Baskaran, with Senthilkumar Kesavan credited as a co-director. Aakash has written the dialogues with Dravid and Ramanagirivasan. Thaman has also composed the music, while Vivek has written the lyrics for the songs. Manoj Paramahamsa is the cinematographer for the film, with editing handled by Pradeep E Ragav.

Idhayam Murali is produced by Aakash Baskaran under his Dawn Pictures banner, which is also backing Parasakthi, Idly Kadai, and STR:49.
