Hours after making Vaibhav's character reveal, the makers of Chennai City Gangsters unveiled the lead lady Athulya Ravi's character poster. The title is a callback to the song sung by Anirudh in the film Vanakkam Chennai (2013).
Athulya will be Jenny in the film by debut directors Vikram Rajeshwar and Arun Keshav. Both of them have directed advertisements earlier. Vikram is the son of writer and director K Rajeshwar, who has worked as a writer in films like Kadalora Kavidhaigal, Paneer Pushpangal, Seevelaperi Pandi, and Vetri Vizha, to name a few.
Apart from Vaibhav and Athulya, Chennai City Gangsters also stars Anandraj, Rajendran, John Vijay, Redin Kingsley, Sunil Reddy, Ilavarasu, PL Thenappan and others in supporting roles.
Interestingly, Chennai City Gangsters will mark the first time brothers Vaibhav and Sunil will be sharing screen space.
The technical crew consists of D Imman scoring the music, while Tijo Tomy and Suresh A Prasad have been roped in as the cinematographer and editor, respectively. Arun Shankar Durai is doing the art direction, and stunts are handled by Don Ashok. The film is backed by Bobby Balachandran under his home banner, BTG Universal. A release date is yet to be revealed by the makers.
