Vishal's Thamiraparani to be directed by Hari will go to floors on 14 July at a grand function to be held at Vijaya Gardens in Chennai. Big names like K Balachander, Tamil Film Producers Council president Rama Narayanan and AVM Saravanan are expected to take part in the function.

With Hari wielding the megaphone, Thamiraparani has musical score by Yuvan Shankar Raja and cinematography by Priyan.

Hari brings together Prabhu and Nadhiya after almost two decades with the film. Nadhiya, who is choosy about her films after M Kumaran S/O Mahalakshmi was impressed with her role and immediately gave a go ahead to act after listening the script from Hari.

Vijayakumar, Nasser and Nizhalgal Ravi are also in the cast.

An action-packed entertainer, Hari is introducing a new face from Kerala for the film.

Thamiraparani is being produced by the famed production house - Vijaya Production, which was started by Nagi Reddy almost a six decades ago.
