Recently, Karthi has announced his second collaboration with director Muthaiah after the rural blockbuster 'Komban'. Titled 'Viruman', the film marks the acting debut of director Shankar's daughter, Aditi. Meanwhile, Karthi is currently starring in Mani Ratnam's 'Ponniyin Selvan' and PS Mithran's 'Sardar'.

The versatile actor attained fame by sporting different looks in films. We had earlier reported that Karthi plays a dual role in another film 'Sardar'. He sports a long hair look and an old man look. So, the star has decided to complete some major portions for 'Sardar' before he moves ahead to his next with Muthiah in a fresh look.

Viruman was recently launched with a muhurat puja and the first schedule is expected to begin this weekend. However, the shooting location is undisclosed. Rajkiran, Prakash Raj, Soori, RK Suresh, and others play supporting roles in the village drama.

Karthi has first sported a long hair look in 'Ponniyin Selvan' too and he has also undergone some training to get into the skin of the character. He parallelly shot for Sardar as he sports long hair look in the latter too.
