The makers of Arya and Gautham Karthik's Mr X announced, on Friday, that actor Sarath Kumar has joined the cast of the film. The film is directed by Manu Anand. 

Manu Anand has previously helmed Vishnu Vishal's FIR. Divyanka Anand Shankar and Raam H Puthran have penned the screenplay for the film, along with Manu. 

In a previous conversation with CE, Manu says that Mr X will be an action drama. "The story revolves around two individuals, played by Arya and Gautham, who embark on a journey towards a common mission. The film unfolds with how their decisions lead them to a situation and how they come out of it," he says, adding that Mr X also explores father-son emotions.

The technical crew of Mr X consists of Tanveer Mir cranking the camera, Dhibu Ninan Thomas composing music and Prasanna GK handling the edit. The filming for Mr X is set to take place across India, Uganda and European countries.
