Actor Dhanush-produced Tamil film "Naanum Rowdy Dhaan", which features Vijay Sethupathi and Nayantara in the lead, went on the floors here Wednesday.

"The film's regular shooting started today (Wednesday). A few scenes are expected to be canned on the first day," a source from the film's unit told.

Being directed by Vignesh Shivan, the film is said to be high on comedy.

Dhanush, who turned producer last year with Tamil drama "Ethir Neechal", recently scored a blockbuster with "Vela Illa Pattathari".

On the acting front, he's currently busy shooting for Tamil comedy "Maari", while awaiting release of romantic-drama "Anegan".

In Bollywood, he has "Shamitabh" getting ready for release.
