Director Hari is busy shooting his Thamirabarani at AVM Studios in Chennai. The Vishal-Banu starrer is slated for a release this Pongal.

Talking to media persons at the AVM Studios on Tuesday, Hari said,"The movie is an action-packed entertainer laced with humor. Vishal plays Bharani in the movie. The movie deals about events that occur in a strife-torn region in Thirunelveli."

Speaking on the occasion, Vishal said, "I rarely ventured to do comedy in my earlier movies. Thamirabarani has comedy sequences and I hope they have come out well."

"Vishal has not disappointed action-lovers either. There are half-a-dozen stunt sequences and all have come out good," he adds.

Debutant Banu, a look-alike of Nayantara says, "I am happy to be part of such a big project. Hope my career takes off in the right way."
