The flick opened up to negative reviews and left the theaters unnoticed. The Manmadhan actor is now gearing up for the release of his upcoming action film titled Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu. Director Gautham Vasudev Menon has directed the flick. The shooting for the drama which began a long time ago, after facing many hurdles, has finally come to the pre-release stage. The movie is poised to hit the theaters worldwide on 15th of September this year.
Now the production house has launched the trailer of the flick in a grand event that took place recently. Actor Kamal Hassan unveiled the trailer at the event.

Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu is said to be about the life journey of a youngster hailing from a humble background. Silambarasan plays the character named Muthu. The two minutes odd cut opens with the alluring voiceover of Gautham Vasudev Menon reciting, “Sometimes saying the truth is more difficult than telling a story. This is the life of a real man.” In the visuals we see actor Silambarasan, a struggling young man trying to find his place in the world and make a living. He ventures into the world of crime.

Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu marks the third time association of director Gautham Vasudev Menon and Silambarasan after their classic romance drama Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa, and the romantic action thriller Achcham Yenbadhu Madamaiyada.
