The horror-thriller was Dhanush's fourth release in 2022. He was first seen in the action thriller Maaran, which was released directly on Disney+ Hotstar in March. The superstar made his Hollywood debut with Russo Brothers' action-thriller The Gray Man co-starring Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans in July.
In August, Dhanush headlined the family-comedy film Thiruchitrambalam co-starring Nithya Menon and Prakash Raj. It turned out to be a box office blockbuster earning more than Rs 100 crore worldwide. And the actor isn't done yet, he will be seen next in Vaathi, which would hit theatres on December 2.
Naane Varuvean was released on Thursday, to avoid the clash with Mani Ratnam's historical Tamil epic Ponniyin Selvan 1 or Ponniyin Part 1, which stars Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Chiyaan Vikram, Jayam Ravi, Trisha, Karthi, Sobhita Dhulipala, Prakash Raj, and Aishwarya Lekshmi in the leading roles.
