Valli Mayil first look: Vijay Antony plays a cop yet again in this bilingual directed by Suseenthiran

A while ago, director Suseenthiran had announced that he has kicked off shooting of his next project Valli Mayil, and shared a few stills from the launching ceremony. Vijay Antony teams up with the filmmaker for the first time which has Sathyaraj playing a pivotal character in it.

Tollywood actress Faria Abdullah of Jathi Ratnalu (streaming on Amazon Prime Video) fame plays the female lead in the project; the film also marks her Tamil debut. Sunil, Redin Kingsley and GP Muthu are others who essay important roles in the movie. The team has now come up with its first look.

The first look posters in Tamil and Telugu under the same title feature Vijay Antony sporting a khaki. The musician-turned-actor was seen playing a cop in Thimiru Pudichavan (streaming on Amazon Prime Video) which was released in 2018 as well. The bilingual movie has Imman composing music, while Vijay K Chakravarthi is cranking the camera.

Antony and K Udhaya Kumar have been roped in to handle editing and art direction respectively. Bhaskar Sakthi has penned dialogues for Valli Mayil which has stunt choreography by Rajasekar and dance composition by Shobi Paulraj. 

Though first look posters have been released only in Tamil and Telugu, the makers have mentioned that the movie will release in Malayalam, Kannada and Hindi as well. DN Thai Saravanan has produced the project under Nallusamy Pictures along with R Karthick and M Niyaz.

Vijay Antony, who was last seen in Kodiyil Oruvan (streaming on Amazon Prime Video), has more than half-a-dozen films, including his directorial project Pichaikkaran 2, in his kitty. Though action thriller Thamezharasan was announced as a release in December last year, its makers postponed the plans at the last minute.
