Kovai Sarala and Manobala reprise their characters from the previous movies. Muni starred Vedhika, Kanchana featured Raai Lakshmi, and Kanchana 2 starred Tapsee Pannu and Nithya Menen.
Lawrence had previously planned Kanchana 3 with a female protagonist. “There may not be a hero, and I am considering a lead female star. I am also retaining those who are relevant like Kovai Sarala madam who played my mother, Devadarshini, Manobala, and Sreeman in the fourth part as well,” the actor told Silverscreen.
“Just like Kanchana which addressed transgender people’s issues, in the fourth part, I have taken up a different social issue,” he said.
With the shoot of the movie nearing completion, there were plans to release a digital motion poster alongside the release of yesterday’s Rajinikanth-starrer Petta, also produced by Sun Pictures.
The Kanchana franchise has been very successful mainly for its popularity among children. It’s a horror-comedy, widely appreciated by family audiences.
