The makers of Vetri Maaran and actor Silambarasan TR's next, tentatively titled STR 49, announced that the title promo video of the film will be out on Tuesday at 8:09 AM.
Producer of the film Kalaippuli S Thanu teased the announced with the caption "One Name...... One Power."
The earlier released 30-second promo teased STR's look, where he was seen sporting a punk and a printed shirt atypical of the 80s Chennai, similar to the characters in Vada Chennai.
Vetri Maaran had revealed that he will use the script he initially wrote for Vada Chennai, which he had to change to accommodate Dhanush, as he had planned to cast Simbu initially. He added that both STR 49 and Vada Chennai will have common characters, but Dhanush's Anbu will not feature in the new film.
Vada Chennai (2018) is an intense crime drama that features the power tussle between gangs in North Chennai. The film features Guna (Samuthirakani) and Senthil (Kishore) turning against their gang leader, Rajan (Ameer), as he hinders the two henchmen's thirst for power and money. In the turn of events, Guna and Senthil turn against each other, and their struggle pulls in a talented carrom board player, Anbu (Dhanush), inadvertently. Anbu faces the challenge of overcoming the greedy gangsters while also following in the footsteps of Rajan, who aimed to protect the fishermen's hamlet from being usurped by politicians and businessmen. This is how Vada Chennai concludes, setting the stage for the highly anticipated sequel.
STR 49 is expected to include Andrea as Chandra, Samuthirakani, Kishore, Manikandan, and Nelson Dilipkumar, though official confirmation is awaited.
