Durai Senthil Kumar of 'Ethirneechal' and 'Kaaki Sattai' fame an erstwhile assistant of Vetrimaaran was set to direct.

News has now come that 'Adhigaaram' is dropped due to creative differences that arose. Durai Senthil Kumar has already moved on to direct Nayanthara's 81st film produced by Rowdy Pictures.
