The makers of Kishore's next, Mellisai, unveiled the second single from the film, titled 'Vaarthai Thani Thani', on Friday. Shankar Rangarajan has composed the song, which has vocals by V V Prasanna and Shakshi Harendran. The film's director, Dhirav, has also penned the lyrics for the song.
Dhirav made his directorial debut in Veppam Kulir Mazhai (2024), and late last year, his sophomore Dopamine @2.22 was released.
With Subatra Robert, known for her roles in Pariyerum Perumal, Jai Bhim, and Bommai Nayagi, as the female lead, the film's ensemble cast includes George Mariyan, Harish Uthaman, Jaswant Manikandan, Dhananya, Proactive Prabakar, Samson, Kannan Bharati, and others.
The makers say that the film will take place in two parallel timelines centred around the bond between a father and daughter, promising "a deeply emotional and poetic" experience. The film is also expected to revolve around the themes of love, ambition, failure, and success.
Mellisai boasts a technical team, with Shankar Rangarajan composing the music and Devaraj Pugazhendi handling cinematography. Dhirav, like in his previous films, will also be penning the lyrics in the movie. He is also producing the film under the Hashtag FDFS banner. A release date for the film is yet to be announced.
