'He is currently in the last leg of shoot for his Telugu film Kuberaa, and next week, he will join the sets of Tere Ishq Mein for the final schedule. Once he wraps that film, he will start working on Aruvadai,' says the source.

There has been some confusion about the film Dhanush is set to take on after his current in April, it was announced that Ishari K Ganesh's Vels Film International will bankroll Dhanush's film with Karnan-maker Mari Selvaraj, tentatively called D56. It now seems like Dhanush might shoot for Aruvadai before moving to D56. 'Mari has requested the makers to grant him six months for pre-production and six months for post-production since this is a big-scale project. So Dhanush might have opted to do Aruvadai before D56 goes on floors,' says the source. Dhanush, last seen in his sophomore directorial Raayan, is also awaiting the release of his fourth directorial, Idly Kadai, slated to release on October 1. Earlier this year, the star's third film as a director, Nilavuku En Mel Ennadi Kobam (NEEK), was released in theatres.
