Nithilan Swaminathan, the highly acclaimed filmmaker who made a remarkable debut with the 2017 Vidharth starrer "Kurangu Bommai", has once again made waves with his second film, "Maharaja", released this year. Marking Vijay Sethupathi's 50th film, "Maharaja" not only became a box-office sensation but also garnered international acclaim.

The latest reports suggest that Nithilan has already locked in his next project, and this time, he's teaming up with none other than Lady Superstar Nayanthara. The film, rumoured to be titled "Maharaja", is set to be produced by Passion Studios. This exciting news is currently taking social media by storm, although fans are eagerly awaiting an official confirmation.

It's worth noting that "Maharaja" continued its success beyond the big screen, resonating with global audiences following its digital release on Netflix. The film quickly climbed the ranks to become one of the top non-English titles on the platform worldwide. For Vijay Sethupathi, "Maharaja" marked a significant box-office comeback, becoming his first solo hero film to cross the 100-crore mark.
