Four years back on 15th July 2016 came the big news that Selvaraghavan would be directing a new romantic movie with Santhanam and Aaditi Pohankar in the lead roles with music score by Yuvan Shankar Raja. The film titled 'Mannavan Vanthaanadi' went on floors the same year in December and was shot in various locations.

Unfortunately due to a financial crunch for the producer 'Mannavan Vanthaanadi' was shelved. But fans never forgot about the film in all these years and always ask for updates on this rare and exciting film.
