More about Maareesan
The movie follows Velayudham, an old man who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease. During a journey, he crosses paths with a thief called Dhaya, who intends to loot him, taking advantage of the disease. However, what follows is a life-altering journey for both of them, leading to unexpected moments.
Aside from Vadivelu and Fafaa, the movie stars Kovai Sarala, Vivek Prasanna, Sithara, PL Thenappan, Livingston, Renuka, Saravana Subbiah, and many more in prominent roles.
In one of his interviews, Fahadh expressed his perplexity about whether Vadivelu would accept the movie. The latter agreed to the film and offered a new shade to his acting.
Talking about if he initially planned to make Maaresan in Malayalam, the Aavesham actor told Hollywood Reporter, “I originally heard it as a Malayalam film. I was planning a Malayalam movie at that point, and that is when I heard this. When we got into the casting and all, I said that we needed someone like Vadivelu sir for this movie.”
“After these discussions, the producer came to us. He is already a Tamil producer and asked why we aren’t making this in Tamil itself. However, my only condition was that if we were doing it in Tamil, it had to be with Vadivelu sir,” Fahadh added.
