Puri Jagannadh Ropes In Samyuktha Menon as Heroine Opposite Vijay Sethupathi
Vijay Sethupathi, the powerhouse performer of South Indian cinema, is teaming up with maverick director Puri Jagannadh for a high-budget film, and the buzz just got louder. After much speculation, the makers have officially revealed the film’s leading lady, Samyuktha Menon. The announcement, made via social media, came with a striking caption: “She has a calm walk… anger in her eyes.”
Vijay Sethupathi, who is riding high on the success of Maharaja and S, is known for his diverse film choices. Whether it’s intense villainous roles like Rayanam in Uppena or national exposure with Jawan, he has carved a niche for himself by prioritizing strong content over stardom.
The Film: What We Know So Far
Though the film’s title is yet to be officially confirmed, rumors suggest names like Beggar and Bhikshandehi are under consideration. The project is already building curiosity in the industry, especially with Tabu playing a key role alongside Sethupathi and Samyuktha.
Puri Jagannadh, known for his high-octane storytelling, is in need of a solid comeback after back-to-back disappointments with Liger and Double iSmart. Sources say he’s going all out with this venture, focusing more than ever on content and performance.
