Selvaraghavan is foregoing, albeit temporarily, his duties behind the camera to turn actor for filmmaker Arun Matheswaran in Saani Kaayidham .

The promotional poster for the film, which was released recently, shows the likeness of Selvaraghavan and National Award-winnning actor Keerthy Suresh holding a knife and a pistol respectively.

The film is touted to be an action-drama set in the 1980s.

Actor Dhanush took to Twitter to share his delight with the acting debut of his brother. “Let the world witness your acting prowess like I did,” he tweeted.

Selvaraghavan merely wrote, “A new adventure begins!”
