Filmmaker Sundar C and actor Vishal are set to join hands once again for a new Tamil action entertainer tentatively titled Vishal 36. The project marks their fourth collaboration after Madha Gaja Raja, Aambala and Action, each known for blending comedy, spectacle and slick action. The announcement video released by the makers showcased clips from their previous ventures, sparking excitement among fans who have long been waiting for the duo to reunite.
Described by the team as a “power-packed commercial entertainer,” the new film is expected to stay true to Sundar C’s signature mix of style and humour. While details about the rest of the cast and crew are still under wraps, the reunion itself has already become one of the most talked-about developments in Tamil cinema this season.
Sundar C and Vishal: Proven Partners in Action
Sundar C, known for his consistent success with mainstream Tamil cinema, last directed and acted in Gangers, a heist comedy that saw him sharing screen space with Vadivelu after more than ten years. He is also in the process of completing Mookuthi Amman 2 with Nayanthara in the lead.
Vishal, meanwhile, is gearing up for the release of Magudam, his thirty-fifth film. The project initially began under the direction of Ravi Arasu, who previously made Eetti and Ayngaran. However, creative differences led to Vishal stepping in as director himself. Magudam features Dushara Vijayan as the female lead, with Anjali and Yogi Babu playing important roles. It is being produced under the prestigious Super Good Films banner, marking the company’s ninety-ninth production.
The film’s music is composed by GV Prakash Kumar, who is collaborating with Vishal for the second time after the hit Mark Antony. Richard M Nathan handles the cinematography, while editing is overseen by Srikanth NB and production design by G Durairaj.
With Magudam nearing completion, Vishal’s focus will soon shift entirely to Vishal 36, making this a crucial period for the actor both in front of and behind the camera.
What to Expect from Vishal 36
Although official details about the storyline are yet to be shared, the teaser hints at an action-heavy narrative in line with the duo’s earlier works. Sundar C’s films with Vishal have often relied on fast pacing, ensemble humour, and strong hero-driven moments, all of which have become familiar hallmarks of their partnership.
Industry insiders believe this film could be one of the key commercial releases of 2026, with early reports suggesting that the production will begin early next year. Fans are already speculating about the female lead and the musical collaborator, both of which are expected to be announced soon.
Sundar C’s return to large-scale action entertainment after Action and Gangers also signals a comeback to the genre that built his brand. For Vishal, the project continues his streak of high-energy roles that balance physicality and mass appeal. Together, the duo seems ready to reignite the old magic that once made their films staples of Tamil box office success.
