He has given some of the best solo hits to the Tamil and Telugu film industries with titles like Kaadhal Kondein, Aadukalam and Asuran among many others.

Just before the release of The Gray Man, Dhanush was seen in Tamil film Maaran. The action entertainer also features Malavika Mohanan in the lead.
