Actor Dhanush and Telugu director Sekhar Kammula are collaborating for a film, which will be the 51st movie of the Tamil star. A day ahead of his 40th birthday celebration, the film was formally announced by Dhanush on Twitter with a concept poster. The poster highlights a huge bundle of old hundred rupee notes with a rambling metro city in the background. The dated money could be a potential clue that D51 is a period film.

Throughout the long term, he has turned into a significant voice in Telugu with films like Anand, Godavari, Happy Days, and Leader. For Dhanush, who transformed Telugu states with his new release Sir (Vaathi in Tamil), D51 will be the subsequent Telugu film.
