Raghava Lawrence, one of Tamil cinema's most successful actor-directors, is all set to return with the highly anticipated "Kanchana 4", following the immense success of the "Kanchana" horror-comedy franchise. Known for redefining the genre with his unique blend of scares and laughs, Lawrence has officially begun preparations for the next part, and fans are already buzzing with excitement.

Initially, actress Mrunal Thakur was considered for the female lead role. However, the latest reports suggest that Pooja Hegde, who made waves in Tamil cinema with her role in "Beast" alongside Thalapathy Vijay, has been confirmed as the lead actress in "Kanchana 4". Pooja, who is currently filming "Suriya 44", has now joined hands with Lawrence, creating an electrifying combo that has thrilled fans across the board.

Following the blockbuster success of "Kanchana 3", the fourth chapter is set to be an even grander production, with a reported budget of ₹100 crore, bankrolled by Goldmines Films. With the script already finalized, shooting is expected to begin by the end of this year, promising to be a magnum opus in the making. As Lawrence gears up to bring another supernatural spectacle to the big screen, anticipation continues to soar for what could be yet another massive hit in the franchise.
