Mani Ratnam is known to complete his projects swiftly and his upcoming multistarrer Chekka Chivantha Vaanam which went on the floors in mid-February was also planned to be shot in a single schedule.
But due to the TFPC strike which lasted nearly 50-day long, the film’s shooting was disrupted.
After resumption, the shooting has been going on at a brisk pace and actor Arvind Swami has now taken to Twitter to confirm that his portions for the film have been finished.
The tweet read, “Just finished my work in Chekka Chivantha Vaanam.
As always, it was a privilege to work with Mani Sir, Santosh Sivan, and the whole crew. CCV will be special, can feel it.”
