A new still from Dhanush's Captain Miller (Image: Twitter//Arun Matheshwaran)Dhanush is currently one of the most happening stars in the South. After making a stellar entry into Hollywood with Russo Brother’s Gray Man, he delivered a rooted family drama Thiruchitrambalam, which turned out to be his career’s best in terms of box office collection. Now, even as he is gearing up to release his next film Naane Varuven, directed by his brother Selvaraghavan, Dhanush has started the work on another project, titled Captain Miller. A new still from the movie is out, which features Dhanush in a rugged look.
The actor is seen is sporting long hair and a beard in the picture and the black wayfarer complements the uber-cool look. Here’s the still:

The film is directed by Arun Matheshwaran, who has already earned a cult following with his film Rocky and Saani Kaayidham. It is rumoured that Miller is a period film set in the 40s of Madras Presidency and that Dhanush will be seen in three different looks. However, Dhanush and Arun Matheshwaran have been tight-lipped about the project.
GV Prakash, who has composed hit albums for Dhanush in films like Aadukalam and Polladhavan, is teaming with the actor again for Captain Miller. Sathya Jyothi Films is bankrolling the upcoming project.
Meanwhile, other than Naane Varuven, Dhanush also has Vaathi, a Tamil-Telugu bilingual gearing up for release. Titled Sir in Telugu, the film is set to be released on December 2.
