Young filmmaker Karthik Naren with his very first film 'Dhruvangal 16' became a huge name in Tamil cinema and has risen to the stature of directing Dhanush next in 'D43' produced by Sathyajyothi Films with G.V. Prakash as music director. The preproduction along with music composition have started for the project.

Karthik Naren has made the shocking revelation that a person impersonating him has started a fraud on Whatsapp by posing a casting call for his movie and asking people to send money for the same. He has warned his followers that if any message is received in his name to block the number 9777017348 and also report it. The understandably angry Karthik Naren has warned the impersonator "Whoever is doing this is a fraud and should burn in hell".
