The official trailer clearly shows that the outstanding director's next film, Naane Varuven, will be yet another distinctive cinematic experience. However, the public, in particular Dhanush fans, are not pleased with the movie's box office competition with Mani Ratnam's Ponniyin Selvan.

Producer Kalaipuli S Thanu recently told Behindwoods TV in an interview that Ponniyin Selvan, one of the largest films ever made in the Tamil cinema business, is not in direct competition with Naane Varuven. The company planned to release the Dhanush-starring film on September 29, one day before Ponniyin Selvan I, since they didn't want to miss the Navaratri season, said the seasoned producer.

Meanwhile, the Naane Varuven producers have disappointed Tamil moviegoers by not doing enough to promote the movie. On the other side, Ponniyin Selvan is attracting national notice because of its extensive promotions. According to the most recent rumours, Yuvan Shankar Raja's eerie first song and the film's intriguing trailer produced a mystery atmosphere that director Selvaraghavan and his crew chose not to promote actively. In order to ensure a safe launch, he also said that Naane Varuven is not shielding in tandem with such a large release.

Coming to Naane Varuven, Dhanush plays a double role in the film, as Kathir and Prabhu. Even though the teaser didn’t reveal anything about the film’s plot, it hints that one of the characters played by the leading man has negative shades.

Ponniyin Selvan, on the other hand, features a stellar star cast, including Chiyaan Vikram, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Jayam Ravi, Karthi, and Trisha Krishnan. The movie, which is based on Kalki Krishnamurthy’s novel of the same name, is getting released in two parts.
