Irumbuthirai, a contemporary thriller which is Vishal's next venture, is a milestone 125th film of Yuvan Shankar Raja. He has been credited in the titles with the sobriquet of 'Little Maestro'. While Samantha plays the female lead in a meaty role, Arjun, who is Vishal's mentor, will be seen as a formidable antagonist.
Speaking on the occasion, a reticent Yuvan said, "I am joining hands with Vishal after a gap. It is an awesome movie and happy with the way it has shaped up.
Honestly, after a long time, I really enjoyed and loved while composing music and rerecording for a movie and that is Irumbuthirai. Mithran is very talented and just reproduced visually what he had narrated to me earlier."
On his part, Vishal said, "When social issues are being discussed in films, their reach is more. Yuvan Shankar Raja is like a family member to me. I am happy that the songs have come out well and am eagerly waiting for the background score. The film deals and talks more about scams that are happening to a greater extent.
The problem the movie deals with is something that happened in my father's life and I have witnessed it myself. So, the audiences would connect with the subject."
