Dhanush starts shooting for his next bilingual film Sir

National Award winner Dhanush on Friday announced that production has started on his new bilingual film Sir. The Telugu-Tamil movie is written and directed by Venky Atluri of Rang De and Tholiprema fame.

Giving us a glimpse of such new beginnings, the actor shared photos on his Twitter account. The pics seem to be from the shoot set. While Dhanush turns his back to the camera, there’s a lot that we can gather from this image. We see him dressed in tailored pants and a shirt with sleeves folded up to his biceps. The actor looks away from the lens towards a blurry crowd at a distance.

The poster reads, “Filming begins” along with the name of the film in different languages. Sharing the moments, Dhanush wrote, “With a lot of passion, heart and faith… #vaathi #sir shooting in progress.” He also added emojis of a red heart and joined hands in the caption.

Sir has officially launched a Pooja Ceremony earlier this month at an event in Hyderabad. The Venky Atluri directorial is being produced by Sithara Entertainments. The production house shared photos of the film’s inaugural pooja ceremony on Twitter. The photos showed Dhanush taking part in the ceremonies alongside co-star Samyuktha Menon.

The storyline of Sir, which is a social drama, features a young man at the centre of many struggles against the education mafia. The protagonist, played by Dhanush, will fight against the privatization of education in the film.
