Dhanush and Venky Atluri Set for Police Drama After Vaathi Success

Dhanush and Venky Atluri Reunite for a Police-Themed Film

Dhanush, who is currently awaiting the release of his film OM directed by Rajkumar Periasamy, is already making headlines for his next collaboration. The actor, known for his versatile performances across industries, will soon join hands again with director Venky Atluri, who previously helmed the successful Vaathi (Sir in Telugu).

Venky Atluri recently shared an update on this much-discussed project. In a candid interaction, he revealed that he has already pitched an idea to Dhanush and plans to start writing the script after finishing his current film, Vishwanath & Sons. The director disclosed that the upcoming film will be set against a police backdrop, a genre he admits is new territory for him. "I am doing extensive research because I want to get the story right, especially since Dhanush is a writer and director himself," Venky said.

The news of their reunion has sparked anticipation among fans, especially after the success of Vaathi/Sir. Social media has been abuzz with discussions about what this duo will deliver next. Meanwhile, Dhanush’s OM, which also stars Mammootty, Sai Pallavi, Sreeleela, and Naseeruddin Shah, is scheduled for a theatrical release on October 16, 2026.

Further details about the Dhanush-Venky Atluri project are expected once Vishwanath & Sons is completed, keeping fans eager for more updates.
