Taking to his X timeline to release the first look poster of the film, G V Prakash wrote, "Best of luck team. Here is the First Look of #MadrasMatinee ."

Interestingly, the first look poster released on Wednesday gives away the fact that the makers intend to release the film in June this year.

Presented by the leading production company Dream Warrior Pictures, the film caught the attention of film buffs when its makers released a video clip titled Madras Matinee Title Story earlier this year.

The YouTube video clip opens with actor Sathyaraj saying, one can even write about science fiction but not about the middle class. Trying to put across the point that middle class family life is boring, he ends his speech asking a question, "Where is the joy and adventure in a middle-class family's life?" But you get the impression that the film will be an answer to this question posed by Sathyaraj.

The video clip also gives away the names of the characters in the film. While Sathyaraj plays a sci-fi writer Jyoti Ramaya, Kaali Venkat plays a character called Kannan and Roshini plays a character called Deepika. While Viswa plays a character called Dinesh, the dog Bigil plays a character called Brownie.

The film, which has been produced by Madras Motion Pictures, will apart from Kaali Venkat and Roshni Haripriyan, feature a big list of actors including Sathyaraj, Shelly, Vishva, George Maryan, Archana Chandhoke, Sunil Sukhada, Madhumitha, Chaams, Geetha Kailasam, and Bhanupriya among others.

Cinematography for the film is by Anand G K and its music has been composed by K C Balasarangan. Satheesh Kumar Samuski is handling the editing work of the film which has art direction by Jacki.

Excited for this one! Kaali Venkat is such an underrated actor who brings authenticity to every role. The middle-class theme resonates with most of us Chennaiites. Hope it's as good as the title story suggested! 🤞

The casting looks brilliant - from Sathyaraj sir to the dog Brownie! 😄 But I hope they don't make it too preachy about middle-class life. We want entertainment along with the message. GV Prakash's backing gives me confidence though!

June release seems ambitious. With so many big names involved, I hope they don't compromise on quality for meeting deadlines. Tamil cinema needs more well-made middle-class stories, not rushed ones.

The concept sounds fresh - mixing sci-fi writer character with middle-class reality. Hope the director maintains this interesting contrast throughout the film. Roshni Haripriyan is a great choice for female lead too!

After the disaster of some recent Tamil films, I'm cautiously optimistic about this one. At least the team seems sincere. And having Sathyaraj sir is always a plus - his dialogue delivery alone can elevate any scene!

The title story video was brilliant! But I hope the actual movie lives up to that standard. Too often we see great promos but disappointing films. Fingers crossed for this Madras special! 🤞
