Director Venkat Prabhu, who has had no theatrical releases for five years, made a stupendous comeback with Silambarasan-starrer Maanaadu (streaming on SonyLIV) which released in November.

Though many expected him to take a break for a while after delivering a blockbuster, he surprised everyone by announcing that he has started shooting for his next, titled Manmatha Leelai, with Ashok Selvan playing the lead role. Billed as a rom-com, Smruthi Venkat, Riya Suman and Samyuktha Hegde essay female leads in the movie which has Premgi Amaren composing music.

The makers had released a small glimpse video recently which was unveiled by Silambarasan. A few days ago, they also released posters featuring Ashok Selvan with the three female leads. The movie is carrying good expectations among the audience because of the explicit content in it.

The team has now announced that its trailer will be released on March 21. It is yet to be known as to who will present the much-expected trailer from the project which has been produced by T Muruganantham under Rockfort Entertainment.

Thamizh A Azhagan has cranked the camera for the film which has editing by Venkat Raajen. Stunt Silva, who came up with impressive stunt sequences in Maanaadu, has been roped in to helm action scenes for Manmatha Leelai, which will release in Telugu as Manmadha Leela.
