He will join the set of Udhayanidhi’s film on the 26th of this month,” a source told Times Of India.
The film is directed by Gaurav Narayanan, who previously made Thoonganagaram and Sigaram Thodu. The film will have actress Manjima Mohan playing the female lead.

Daniel Balaji, who made his way into the spotlight through films like Kaaka Kaaka and Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyadu, did not manage to make his presence felt in Tamil movies after his role in Polladhavan. He made a comeback of sorts through Aishwarya Dhanush’s Vai Raja Vai which released last year. Now, he has signed on some big films including Dhanush’ Vada Chennai and Vijay’s Bairavaa. He will also be seen playing integral roles in Gautham Menon’s Achcham Yenbadhu Madamaiyada, CV Kumar’s Maayavan and Ultaa.
