The first look of Gautham Menon’s next film with Dhanush, titled Ennai Nokki Paayum Thotta (‘Bullets that fly at me’) was unveiled on social media on Sunday.

The idea for the film was reportedly conceived in mid-2013, initially with actor Suriya in the lead. After discussions fell through, Menon proceeded with his bilingual romantic thriller Achcham Yenbadhu Madamaiyada/Sahasame Swasaga Sagipo, with Silambarasan and Naga Chaitanya, which was released earlier this month.
