D55: Mammootty joins Dhanush in Rajkumar Periasamy directorial
Malayalam superstar Mammootty has been confirmed as part of the cast for the Tamil film D55, alongside Dhanush, Sai Pallavi, and Sreeleela. The project, directed by Rajkumar Periasamy, marks Mammootty's return to Tamil cinema.
Veteran Malayalam actor Mammootty has officially joined the cast of the upcoming Tamil film tentatively titled D55, directed by Rajkumar Periasamy and headlined by Dhanush. The makers announced the development on Tuesday, following a cryptic poster that read, “You think you’ve seen them all, but the biggest is yet to come. The ‘M’ost awaited!! The ‘M’agnificent!!!” — prompting fans to correctly guess Mammootty’s involvement.
Announcing the update, the makers wrote on X, “When the Big M chooses a story, it becomes history. Super excited to welcome Megastar @mammukka onboard #D55! We are honoured! Thank you #Mammootty sir.”
Mammootty returns to Tamil cinema after 7 years
D55 marks Mammootty’s return to Tamil cinema after a seven-year gap. The actor was last seen in the critically acclaimed drama Peranbu, released in 2019. His inclusion is being viewed as a major boost for the project, which has already generated considerable buzz due to its cast and creative team.
Who is producing Dhanush's D55?
The film is being produced by Dhanush’s Wunderbar Films in association with RTake Studios. Initially, D55 was announced under the Gopuram Films banner, with Anbuchezhiyan and Sushmita Anbuchezhiyan backing the project. However, the production setup has since undergone a change.
Who else stars alongside Mammootty and Dhanush in D55?
Apart from Mammootty and Dhanush, the film also stars Sai Pallavi and Sreeleela. Sai Pallavi will be reuniting with Dhanush for the second time after Maari 2 (2018), and with director Rajkumar Periasamy following their earlier collaboration on Amaran. Sreeleela, meanwhile, is working on her second Tamil film after Parasakthi, directed by Sudha Kongara.
Music for D55 will be composed by Sai Abhyankkar. While details about the plot remain under wraps, Rajkumar Periasamy had earlier described the film as one centred on “unsung heroes who blend into society,” with the protagonist representing one such individual.
The makers are yet to reveal further details about the remaining cast, storyline, or release timeline. With Mammootty’s addition now confirmed, expectations around D55 continue to rise as fans await the next big update.
