Santhanam, after a lull in his career has started afresh with much vigour and has begun shooting for 'Dhillukku Dhuddu 2' directed by Rambala who also helmed the original.  The comedy king has also signed another film to be directed by M. Rajesh who has given him his most memorable roles in 'Siva Manasula Shakthi', 'Boss Engira Bhaskaran' and 'Oru Kal Oru Kannadi'.

The Santhanam-Rajesh film which has been in the works for the past few months was originally supposed to be produced by Sri Thenandal Studios but they backed out due to unforseen circumstances.  Prabhu Deva has now stepped in and will be bankrolling the project under his Prabhu Deva Studios banner. The cast and the crew details will be revealed soon for this obvious laugh riot.
