G.V. Prakash Begins Final Schedule for Selvaraghavans Mental Mandhil

Chennai, November 12 (Daily Kiran) : Renowned director Selvaraghavan’s upcoming film, ‘Mental Mandhil’, is in its final shooting phase, according to lead actor G.V. Prakash. The three-time National Award winner took to his X account to share behind-the-scenes photos, announcing, “The final schedule has begun with master Selvaraghavan… This is a love story.”

In a September interview, Prakash revealed that 80 percent of the film’s shooting was already completed, with plans for a release in early 2027. He described ‘Mental Mandhil’ as a blend of styles reminiscent of ‘Yaaradi Nee Mohini’ and films by Imtiaz Ali. “Only seven days of shooting remain in Chennai for my part,” he added.

Prakash praised Selvaraghavan’s directing skills, stating, “Selva sir is a master. His ability to guide and teach actors is unmatched. We’ve seen the film’s edit, and everything is coming together beautifully.”

Fans are eagerly anticipating the film, marking the third collaboration between Selvaraghavan and Prakash, who previously worked together on hits like ‘Aayirathil Oruvan’ and ‘Mayakkam Enna’.

Interestingly, Prakash will not only provide music for this film but also take on the lead role under Selvaraghavan’s direction for the first time. Last year, he shared a photo from the set, saying, “I’m in shooting mode with the great Selvaraghavan… This film and its music will be a special gift for fans.”

The romantic film features actress Madhuri Jain opposite Prakash, along with several notable supporting actors. The first four shooting schedules were completed last year.

On the technical side, cinematography is handled by Arun Ramakrishnan, while G.V. Prakash Kumar is composing the music. The highly anticipated romantic entertainer is edited by Balaji, with art direction by R.K. Vijay Murugan. Dinesh Guna serves as the executive producer, and the film is produced under Prakash’s banner, ‘Parallel Universe Pictures’.
