Kanni Raasi (transl. Virgo) is a 2020 Indian Tamil-language romantic comedy-drama film directed by Muthukumaran and produced by Shameem Ibraham. The film stars Vimal and Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, with Pandiarajan, Yogi Babu, Kaali Venkat and Robo Shankar amongst others in supporting roles.

Plot

The film is about the protagonist's aversion to a love marriage, that is not shared by the heroine, his neighbour.

Cast

Production

In November 2015, it was reported that actor Jiiva would work with newcomer Muthukumar for a romantic comedy film titled Gemini Ganesan.[1][2] P. T. Selvakumar and Shibu Thameens were announced as the film's producers, and they cast Sathyaraj, Lissy and Rajendra Prasad amongst others in pivotal roles. Tamannaah was first choice to play the lead actress, but her unavailability meant that Lakshmi Menon replaced her. However, the failure of the producers' Puli (2015) and their collaboration with Jiiva in Pokkiri Raja, meant that they chose to drop the project.[3][4]

The film was revived with a new producer in June 2017 and Vimal was cast to play the male lead, and Varalaxmi Sarathkumar was signed on to play the female lead. The makers also chose to change the films title from Gemini Ganesan to Kadhal Mannan (transl. King of Romance), a moniker often associated with the actor Gemini Ganesan.[5][6] In January 2018, after a major portion of the shoot was completed, the team renamed the film to Kanni Raasi.[7][8]
