Fahadh Faasil's character poster from Maareesan out

On Thursday, on the occasion of Fahadh Faasil's birthday, the makers of his upcoming film Maareesan unveiled the character poster for the actor. The actor is seen leaning in from a door's frame, wearing a checked shirt and a backpack, and smiling at the camera. 

Also starring Vadivelu in the lead, Maareesan is helmed by Sudheesh Sankar, a Malayalam filmmaker who has directed a number of TV serials as well as a few films like Venal Kinavukal (1991), Aarumaname (2009), and Villali Veeran (2014). 

Maareesan marks Fahadh Faasil's second collaboration with Vadivelu after last year's Maamannan, directed by Mari Selvaraj. The film is backed by RB Choudhary's Super Good Films in its 98th production venture.

While details about the plot are yet to be known, Maareesan's crew includes DOP Kalaiselvan Sivaji, who handled the cinematography for Por Thozhil in 2022. Sreejith Sarang will handle the editing, and Yuvan Shankar Raja will compose the music for the film.
