Parthipan’s clash with Dhanush?

Come November 18, two expected films will hit the screens. One is R Parthipan's (or Radhakrishnan Parthipan, as the advertisements claim) acting-directorial venture 'Vithagan' and the other is Dhanush-Selvaraghavan's fourth movie together, 'Mayakkam Enna'.

'Vithagan', which also happens to be the 50th film of Parthipan, has him in the role of a police officer, who is brainy as well as brawny. With an innovative tagline 'With the gun', 'Vithagan' has Poorna as heroine and music has been composed by Joshua Sridhar of 'Kadhal' fame.

'Mayakkam Enna', a romantic story with Selvaraghavan's unique stamp, has Dhanush in the role of a photographer. Tollywood import Richa Gangopadhyay is the heroine, while songs composed by GV Prakash Kumar are already making their presence felt in a big way.

"Both films are from different genres and hence offer a variety fare to the audience," trade sources say, adding: "Manicam Narayanan's Seventh Channel Communication, which has produced Vithagan and Gemini Film Circuit, the producers of Mayakkam Enna, are promoting their respective ventures in a big way."
