Vishal denies playing the antagonist in Sivakarthikeyan's 25th film

Sivakarthikeyan's latest release, 'Amaran', has turned into a historic hit, elevating the anticipation for his upcoming films to new heights. His 25th film, reportedly directed by Sudha Kongara, has already created a buzz among fans. A recent report added to the excitement, suggesting that prominent Tamil actor Vishal would play the antagonist in the project. However, Vishal was quick to address these rumors.
In an interaction with DT Next, Vishal clarified that he is not part of Sivakarthikeyan’s much-anticipated 25th film. The actor, currently focused on his own major projects, expressed surprise at the origin of these rumors. He also emphasized that, after 20 years of hard work establishing himself as a leading man, he is not ready to take on a negative role at this stage of his career.
While Vishal’s denial has quashed one aspect of speculation, it leaves fans curious about who will portray the antagonist in this milestone venture. Vishal was last seen in Hari's directorial 'Rathnam', an action drama that garnered a positive response. He is now working on 'Thupparivalan 2', which marks his directorial debut. The shooting for this much-awaited project is set to commence soon.
Meanwhile, Sivakarthikeyan is rumored to be replacing Suriya in Sudha Kongara's 'Purananooru'. This period drama, reportedly centered on the anti-Hindi movement, is said to be the actor’s 25th film. The project has generated significant buzz, with fans eagerly awaiting more updates on the cast and crew.
