Actor Kishore, last seen in Kamal Sridevi in Kannada and Indian Penal Law in Tamil, is currently gearing up for his next Tamil film, Mellisai. The film is helmed by G Dhirav.

In a recent statement, Kishore opened up about Mellisai and what about the role attracted him to it. “Mellisai came to me as a story about ordinary lives with unfulfilled dreams, responsibilities and hope. It felt honest, without gimmicks. Playing this character reminded me why I love acting: to stay close to life. I’m grateful to our director, producers, my co-actors and every technician who shaped this journey with sensitivity. This film is special because the heart of it truly belongs to the team,” he shared.

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, Mellisai's ensemble cast includes George Mariyan, Harish Uthaman, Jaswant Manikandan, Dhananya, Proactive Prabakar, Samson, Kannan Bharati, and others.

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.
