Actor-director duo, Dhanush and Vetri Maaran, go back a long way. They worked together on Polladhavan and continued the success show in Aadukalam, which won many honours in the recently announced National Awards.

Even though there were reports claiming that they would come together again, the 35-year-old filmmaker says that his next offering, still in the scripting stage, will not star Dhanush.

“I believe in change. If you keep on working with the same people it gets boring for both parties. We need to keep changing. I am not working with Dhanush in my next movie,” Maraan said.

“I make films to recover the cost, to make money and not to get awards. Awards are always welcome but acceptance by the audience is more important,” he said.
