Maamannan (transl. Emperor) is a 2023 Indian Tamil-language political drama film written and directed by Mari Selvaraj, and produced by Udhayanidhi Stalin via Red Giant Movies. The film stars Vadivelu as the title character, along with Fahadh Faasil, Keerthy Suresh, and Udhayanidhi in his final acting credit.

Production

In July 2021, Udhayanidhi Stalin was reported to do a film with Mari Selvaraj, and it would be his last before he quit acting. In September, reports claimed that Fahadh Faasil was going to be seen in a crucial role in the film. In November, Vadivelu was also reported to act in the film, making it a comeback for him to the film industry after 5 years. In January 2022, Keerthy Suresh was reported to join the film as the lead actress.

Principal photography began in March 2022 in Salem district; the first schedule ended the same month. The second schedule commenced in May, with Fahadh joining the team. In June, Udhayanidhi announced that the second schedule had ended. By August 2022, the final schedule was underway in Chennai. In September 2022, Keerthy completed shooting her portions. Later the same month, principal photography wrapped.

In March 2023, Vadivelu started dubbing for his portions. Post-release, Mari stated that, given Vadivelu's reputation as a comedian, he hoped Maamannan would not remind viewers of the actor's comedic performances: "He suffers, he cries, he gets beaten up, he gets neglected and trampled, he's isolated… His reactions, however, make us laugh [...] In Maamannan, he suffers like he always does, but I've changed how we react to it".
