Earlier, Dhanush was elated over his production and critically acclaimed Tamil drama “Visaranai” becoming India’s official pick for Oscars 2017 in the Foreign Language Film category. He has thanked everyone for believing in him and supporting his vision.
The announcement was made on Thursday.

Based on the novel Lock Up by auto-rickshaw driver-turned-writer M. Chandrakumar, the film is about organised crime within the police force. It also throws the spotlight on police brutality. Visaranai, helmed by filmmaker Vetrimaaran, stars Dinesh, Samuthirakani, Ajay Ghosh and Kishore.

Visaranai was produced by Dhanush, who had released the film under his home banner Wunderbar Films. The film earned critical acclaim earlier last year when it had its world premiere at Venice International Film Festival. It also won National Film Awards.
