Fans are buzzing with excitement as the trailer for actor-director Dhanush’s eagerly awaited film, Idli Kadai, was officially released on Saturday, September 20th. This marks Dhanush’s fourth directorial project, and it’s scheduled to hit big screens on October 1st, promising a compelling cinematic experience.
The preview for Idli Kadai introduces us to Murugan, portrayed by Dhanush, a celebrated chef who leaves his luxurious five-star career behind. His mission? To return to his humble origins and rescue his father’s (played by Rajkiran) beloved idli shop from financial collapse. This heartfelt endeavor puts him directly at odds with his former boss, a menacing character brought to life by Arun Vijay, who is determined to destroy Murugan’s family business. The trailer hints at a deeply emotional drama, reminiscent of films like Ustad Hotel, but infused with thrilling action sequences.
The stellar cast of Idli Kadai includes Nithya Menen, Sathyaraj, Shalini Pandey, Geetha Kailasam, Parthiban, and Samuthirakani, all appearing in significant roles. Fans will be particularly excited to see Nithya Menen and Dhanush share the screen again, following their successful collaboration in the 2022 hit movie Thiruchitrambalam.
Behind the scenes, the film boasts a talented crew with music composed by GV Prakash Kumar, cinematography handled by Kiran Koushik, and editing by Prasanna GK. Idli Kadai is a joint production between Dhanush’s Wunderbar Films and Aakash Baskaran’s Dawn Pictures. The film’s distribution in Tamil Nadu will be managed by Inban Udhayanidhi’s Red Giant Movies banner.
