Dhanush in discussions with 'Amaran' director Rajkumar Periasamy for an exciting new project, while Sivakarthikeyan gears up for action in Tamil cinema.
One of Tamil cinema’s fastest rising stars, Sivakarthikeyan, treated the ‘Mandela’ director Madonne Ashwin and his technical co-workers to dinner after the film won two National Awards, which were announced in New Delhi on Friday.
Talking to IANS, director Madonne Ashwin said, “We are very happy at winning these awards. We actually didn’t expect this recognition. It is a small film with good content that was released only on OTT.”
“As a team, we had the conviction that this film would work. The recognition that we have got made us feel that this was the time to celebrate as a team,” he said.
