Dhanush was reportedly shooting the climax sequence with Malayalam actor Tovino Thomas, who features as the antagonist in Maari 2.

Shooting of the film, which was in its final schedule, has been stalled and will only resume once the actor recuperates.

Maari 2 is one of Dhanush's eagerly awaited movies as he returns at the rowdy local thug Maari in the film. Directed by Balaji Mohan, the cast of Maari 2 has roped in Sai Pallavi to star opposite Dhanush. Actors Robo Shankar and Vinod will also return to resume their roles as Maari's accomplices in the movie.
This is not the first time that Dhanush has featured on trends for suffering injuries during the shooting of his films. In 2012, Dhanush suffered a shoulder injury while filming a Telugu movie and subsequently the shooting dates of Raanjhanaa had to be reassigned. In 2007, he also suffered injuries on his face and forehead after things went awry on the sets of Polladhavan.
Apart from Maari 2, Dhanush also has Tamil films such as Vada Chennaia and Enai Nokki Paayum Thota in the pipeline.
