“Mellaisai will show Vijay Sethupathi in a different light,” says director

Director Ranjith Jeyakodi, who is making his debut with the long-pending Mellisai, has confirmed that the teaser will be unveiled on September 14th. “This emotional thriller was named Mellisai (meaning melody) since the hero, played by Vijay Sethupathi, is a music  director and the heroine, Gayathrie, a violin teacher,” says Ranjit.

“Mellaisai will show Vijay Sethupathi in a different light.  He usually does only rural get-ups, but in this film he’s playing a modern character. The film has a lot of surprises in store for the audience. There’s not much scope for romance in the film, per se,” Ranjit adds.
