Dhanush and Shweta Mohan Team Up for Soulful First Single from Idli Kadai, Poster Out Now

Wunderbar Films has just unveiled the first look poster for the much-awaited first single from Idli Kadai, the upcoming Tamil drama directed and co-produced by Dhanush. The caption teases a melodic experience, calling the track “a sweet sounding breeze,” and confirms that the single — a duet by Dhanush and renowned playback singer Shweta Mohan — will be released on July 27, 2025. With Dhanush’s proven musical charisma, especially since the viral success of “Why This Kolaveri Di,” fans are eager to hear what this new track will bring.

The film’s music is composed by G.V. Prakash Kumar, promising a blend of emotional depth and mass appeal. Dhanush’s involvement both behind and in front of the camera elevates expectations for the soundtrack, while Shweta Mohan’s inclusion hints at a melodious and possibly romantic number. The poster, though minimalist, carries an air of nostalgia and warmth, setting the tone for what could be a heartfelt addition to the Tamil music scene this year.

Idli Kadai began filming in September 2024 in the scenic Theni district of Tamil Nadu and is now in its final production phase. A single song sequence remains to be shot overseas, pushing the film’s release from its originally planned April 2025 window to a new date: October 1, 2025.

Starring Dhanush opposite Nithya Menen, Idli Kadai is positioning itself as a dramatic, emotionally rich film with mainstream appeal. Menen, a National Film Award winner for her performance in Thiruchitrambalam (2022), shares a strong on-screen rapport with Dhanush, further amplifying box-office expectations. With a global release strategy and a promising first single poised to drop, Idli Kadai is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated Tamil films of 2025.
