The actor's new look has created curiosity among his fans whom he surprised with a clean-shaven head. As soon as Dhanush's pictures surfaced on social media, fans wondered if this is the new look for his upcoming films.
Dhanush was seen at the Tirupati temple in Andhra Pradesh with his kids, Yatra and Linga, and his parents Kasthuri Raja and Vijayalakshmi.
On the work front, Dhanush will be seen in 'Captain Miller' which is a period drama, set in the Madras Presidency of the 1930s and 40s.

The movie is written and directed by Arun Matheswaran and the music is composed by GV Prakash. It is jointly produced by Sendhil and Arjun Thyagarajan under the banner of Sathya Jyothi Films.
Director Arun revealed that Dhanush will sport three different looks in 'Captain Miller'. “Dhanush will have three getups in the film, and the first poster carries one of these looks. The others will be released subsequently during further promotions. Over 85 per cent of the film has been shot, and we have even completed portions of Kannada star Shiva Rajkumar. The film is set against the backdrop of the 1930s, in the pre-independence era," he told Times Of India.
The dialogues are written by Madhan Karky and Poornima Ramasamy and Kavya Sriraam has worked as the costume designer. Shreyaas Krishna worked as the DOP of the film and T Ramalingam is the art director.
