Mafia first look: Arun Vijay looks dapper in Karthick Naren’s next

Starring Arun Vijay in the lead role, Mafia is directed by Karthick Naren of Dhuruvangal Pathinaaru fame.

Mafia first look: The Arjun Vijay starrer is bankrolled by Lyca Productions.

The first look poster of Arjun Vijay’s upcoming film with director Karthick Naren was released on Tuesday. Bankrolled by Lyca Productions, the film has been titled Mafia. The poster also features a tagline that reads, Chapter-1, hinting that it could be a film franchise.

Judging from the poster, Arun Vijay seems to be playing a hitman in Mafia. “#MAFIA it is!! #AV28 ! Joining hands with @karthicknaren_M & @LycaProductions after the BB #Thadam.. Here’s the first look for you’ll.. It’s going to be one hell of a ride.. Excited to kickstart it soon!! (sic),” tweeted Arun, while sharing the posters.

Mafia is Karthick Naren’s third film after his directorial debut Dhuruvangal Pathinaaru and Naragasooran. He made his first movie in 2016. His second outing Naragasooran, however, is in limbo for about two years now. The fate of the film, starring Aravind Swamy, Shriya Saran, Sundeep Kishan, Aathmika and Indrajith Sukumaran, remains uncertain as it is reeling under financial pressure.
