Arun Vijay's action entertainer with Muthaiya titled 'Irulan'
Chennai, Aug 12
The makers of director Muthaiya's upcoming action entertainer featuring actor Arun Vijay in the lead on Wednesday announced that the film had now been titled 'Irulan', much to the delight of fans and film buffs.
The makers also released the first look motion poster of the film on the occasion.
Taking to his social media timelines to share the first look motion poster of the film, Arun Vijay wrote, "Presenting the first look motion poster of 'IRULAN' for you'll!!"
It may be recalled that Arun Vijay had been sweating it out in the gymnasium to sport a lean, fit look in this film. The actor, in an exclusive interview to IANS earlier, had that the film's plot was based on a real-life incident.
Some days ago, actor Arun Vijay had taken to his Instagram page to post a picture of him slogging it out in the gymnasium. He wrote, "All pumped up for the ongoing power packed action schedule for #AV38 !! #directormuthaiya #thirunalveli."
When IANS got in touch with the actor to ask about the look he sported in the film and the efforts he was making to acquire that look, Arun Vijay disclosed that he sported two looks in the film.
"I sport a period look and then I also sport a much younger look for which I need to have a toned body that looks fit and lean. Therefore, I am looking to shed weight at the moment," he had said with a smile.
The actor had disclosed that the film was based on a true incident and that it would be an entertainer that would appeal to everyone in a family. "We are shooting the film in the Tirunelveli, Thoothukudi belt. Already we have shot for around 25 days. The period portions in the film are over. We are now filming the present-day portions," he had then said.
Stating that the film would revolve around a passionate youngster's efforts to take up his family's ancestral profession much against the wishes of the elders in his family, the actor said the film was really shaping up well and that it would be high on family sentiment, action and drama.

"Irulan" is such a strong title! 💪 I love that he's doing two different looks — period plus younger. That kind of dedication shows real passion. Can't wait to see the family sentiment angle, it makes it more relatable for all of us.
Respect to Arun Vijay for the physical transformation! It's not easy to maintain that lean look for dual roles. And Muthaiya knows how to capture rural Tamil Nadu authentically. Hoping for a solid mass entertainer, not just another routine action flick. 🤞
The plot about a youngster fighting to continue his ancestral profession against elders' wishes — this happens so often in our families! Very relatable and emotional. A true incident base makes it even more interesting. This could be a lovely family entertainer. 😊
I've been following Arun Vijay's career for a while. He always gives his 100%, whether it's action or emotion. Muthaiya's direction with real locations and raw storytelling is a perfect match. This is going to be a treat for fans who enjoy rooted cinema.
Good to see filmmakers still focusing on strong scripts with family values, not just mass masala. The period look and the younger look concept sounds refreshing. Hope the action sequences are grounded in realism and not over-the-top. Wishing the team a great release!
