Significantly, his movies have exhibited diversified story premises and contents, thereby gaining the attention of universal audiences. Now, he has signed up for a film, which features him in the role of a detective. Directed by debutant filmmaker Manoj Ram, a former associate of filmmaker Shakthi Soundarajan, the filmmaker has crafted a tale of mystery.

The core concept of the film will have a strong message involving a crisis of this contemporary time.”  Getting on to speak about the reason behind getting Vidharth onboard, Manoj says, “Of course, he has distinctly proved himself to be ‘Kathaiyin Nayagan’ (Hero of the story), which makes him easily preferred by filmmakers, especially for debutants like us.
